I found where you can get new fuel pump diaphragm material at the following link:
http://www.pfs-ware.com/Parts/FuelPump.htm
$15, enough to do several pumps
material is listed on their site as:
Fuel Pump Diaphragm material
Buna-N-Nitrile, .012 thickness
3 7/8" x 8 1/2", sufficient to do several diaphragms
Site is "Ollies parts counter"
I am not affiliated with them just did a search for fuel pump diaphragm material.
Lots of vintage car owners have the same problem.
Hope this helps.

Re: replacing a fuel pump diaphragm
My last post is WRONG! Hopefully an admin can remove my last post.
Here's why:
The material I researched will not survive modern fuel. Old fuel pumps stripped of their diaphram won't either.
I did find a proper replacement which is sheet stock VITON and it will survive modern ethanol fuel exposure.
There are many suppliers of such stock I found.
I am sorry for my error.
