1987 Chevy Truck fuel pump relay

Electrical problem
1987 Chevy Truck V8 Two Wheel Drive Automatic

i cant find the relay for my fuel pump. i had to replace the rubber lines due to cracks and wear, i did NOT disconnect the wires to the pump when i dropped the tank. i removed the pump and placed a plastic bag over it to protect it from debris, then poured the old gas out. i replaced the lines, re-installed the pump and tried to prime the pump by switching the ign. on/off but now i dont hear the pump running or the relay. i checked the fuses and were good but could not find the relay. i bought the replacement part hoping to make a visual match but no luck? any answers?
