There's a specialty shop that doubles as a Bosch direct store here I'll need to check out, as I've found many Bosch brand BMW parts there for a fraction of what the dealer charges...
Glad to hear it was just the pump Dane.

Ya know, now that I think about it, I should has recognized this as a possible pump problem. When I had my e32, I had almost the exact same symptoms, and end result was the pump was on it's way to dieing, and then suddenly wouldn't work at all. Replies to that thread on bf.c ultimately revealed many many others had the same symptoms when their pumps were biting the dust.
My fuel filter vacuum leak was from the intake manifold. Right behind the air filter box where it connects to the intake, there are two small rubber hoses that connect to a plastic tee on the top of the intake. The bottom hose goes to the fuel filter - it had stretched out and needed a zip tie (or replaced) to make a good seal.
You mentioned having the yellow oil light come on. Apparently one other problem that can plague our cars is a blown diaphragm in the Crankcase-Ventilation/oil separator. I'm using oil at a rather rapid pace (1 qt every 200-500 miles) - so I'm ordering the separator and all hoses to change this out and see if this is the problem.
FWIW, watch your consumption.
