The airpump is there to inject additional air into the exhaust stream at cold start to get the catalytic convertor up the temperture as fast as possible.

Ben, if you're talking about going w/ the AEM EMS, then yes, you can ditch the airpump. The AEM unit doesn't control it anyways, so it's just extra junk in your engine bay. I don't have a good pic, but you can just make a block off plate for your intake manifold and remove the pump and associated piping/hoses.
BTW, don't you have an extra one you could sell cheap

Billman, mine looks like that haha, not quite as melted. Thats why I am thinking it might be fixable. I am affraid of junk yard pieces because you can run into the same problem.
This is covered under the 8/80k emissions warranty?

You can use a plastic repair kit, plastic rods and a air heated gun.
it's tricky since you need to merry the right types of plastic together.
But i've seen plastic custom silo's built using this technique without issues.
