I also checked Napa online and they picture 2 different pumps, one has the pump encased in a metal "tube" and the other one has the pump exposed. What is the difference?

There is a $200 difference.
One is just the pump and one is the complete bracket with float and level sender and pump.
My 97 k1500 pick up uses the one that has the replaceable pump. Around $60-80. A friend has a 97 Tahoe and it uses the module unitized one that cost around $350 at the dealer, $200 +/- at GMparts direct.com.
I think I needed the number off a tag on the fuel line at the tank the first time, But don't remember napa asking the next time.
I understand that 98 up all use the $350 module.
I will check my options tag in the glove box later because now I'm curious what it might say.
