My 410 has an SU electric pump, located high up in the boot on the right hand side. I think some other cars also have had them fitted in the boot. The diaphragms (it's a double pump) do not last forever and I had to rebuild mine a few years ago after it failed without warning on the motorway. If it's not original, I would guess it was fitted when the car was restored circa 1990.
