Re: WTH...Smelling gas/Fuel pump went out
I just had to replace my fuel pump because of this issue. The pump didn't fail but the lock ring holding the pump in place rusted out completely. It was so bad that on a full tank gas would spew out the top of the gas tank. Had rust and all types of other sediments in the tank. I had to drain all fuel, wipe the tank clean and refill once the new pump was in place. It was nasty!

Re: WTH...Smelling gas/Fuel pump went out
I wonder why so much rust? Winter road salt maybe?

Re: WTH...Smelling gas/Fuel pump went out
It's the way the tank is designed... It's inevitable that debris, salt, dirt etc. will get on top of the tank and be trapped there. It leads to tons of corrosion around the pump which is a metal top.
When you replace the pump go with the Delphi model as it has a hard plastic topping to the fuel pump. I had an evap leak P0455 code for about a year until I took the tank down and discovered a leak around the seal.
