Been working for us, have been using it for years. Periodic cleaning I do disassemble and apply more cooking oil to the seal. No rust, no chrome flakes. Will post video the next cleaning. I will say when I first got the pump before using with water, I did tear it down and clean all parts first. They have a light oil in them when you buy them.
It's not a pump for fuel, even states on package. It's used for an oil-based liquid. Motor oil, etc. You are correct I don't believe it was intended for water. Never promoted it as such, however it does and has worked for years for me. Still use it to this day. Sometimes when a need is should I say needed you use what you got and make it work. If maintained correctly zero issues as of now at least.
Yep for fuel... however in a pinch it was cleaned relubed and used for water for a year or so. Had no issues. Have upgraded but still have that little pump laying around somewhere.
Is it drinking water safe??

Mine kept discharging rust. But you can find the same thing on the internet in stainless steel
Because its for fuel. Not water
