I've always had good luck with Melling high volume oil pumps and they are fairly cheap under $50. Why not just get your short block bored over and reuse it?
Re: buying a new short block/ what oil pump to go with it?
Do a search. A lot of people (including me) think that the stock pump with a white spring is the best choice for most situations. Some people have issues with HV pumps, some don't.

The general consensuse I've found on this board, like shoebox said is the stock replacement w/ white high pressure spring. Some people claim a HV pump w/ stock pan can cause cavitation problems, others are fine...do a search on it and you'll get a ton of opinions.
FWIW I'm running stock w/ spring for my 383.
