Check fuel availability at the delivery tube. (Suck on it, or use a
MightVac or equivalent).
The fuel pump on an old Ford is operated by an offset round disc pegged
to the front of the cam.
It is possible that the old pump was just stuck in the up position
until you removed it.

When you tested the fuel pump of the engine was the line to the
carb connected to the pump? Did you try the pumps on the engine
with the line to the carb disconnected? I'm thinking the line
might be plugged or the carb needle valve is plugged.

Those old fuel pumps can get stuck (lever not moving) at the high
point on the drive cam, and the check valves can also stay open so
that the fuel just moves back and forth. Given the age of the pump,
the first situation is not only possible, but I've seen it before.
Pump works by hand
