This site may have it as well.

Out of stock is different than "No longer supplied"

[thwr]

@DustinB3403 That's true. Will write them a mail.

Is this part externally mounted?

Or is it internal?

Haven't seen it myself, but as far as I can tell from the exploded assembly drawing it's mounted inside of the gas tank.

Thanks everyone for trying

Still need that part, so I would appreciate any help.

There's another chap looking for the same part!!!

You could try a wreckers yard

There's a wrecker network here. Already called them, no luck.

I've noticed that the part I need (77024-0D050) is part of another part number, 77020-0D050.

That seems to be the whole fuel pump including that filter.

My garage just ordered some special gasoline resistant plastic glue. Hope that works.

Car guy here. Typically with small parts like this they come in an assembly. I am betting you won't be able to buy this single part, but you can buy a new fuel pump assembly, which would likely contain it. I am just speculating. That being said, if you are having your mechanic drop the fuel tank, I would invest the money and replace the pump and every single seal and part that could fail while your in there. You are going to have quite a bit of money in labor just taking the tank off, the labor in replacing all these parts while they are in is nominal versus having to pay someone to do it all over again in a year when something else in there fails.

Thanks, they already did that. Because you are right, labor costs are a big one when removing the tank.

But about the part, well, no success so far. Posted here, in a German Toyota community (toyota-forum.de), in a part trading pool (800 members, teilehaber.de), in a wreckers pool, asked Toyota directly, searched on Russian and Japanese websites... to no avail

Ok, just got a call: glue arrived, has been applied and they did a test drive without any issues.

Thanks everyone!

[thwr]

So to summarize:
New fuel pump filter 30 Eur
New fuel pump assembly 350 Eur
New tank assembly incl. fuel pump 900 EUR
Labor costs approx. 500 EUR
Glue approx 50 EUR
New tank air filter 50 EUR
Filling the tank 50 EUR

Could be worse, I guess.

[thwr]

Topic solved, paid like 520 EUR total. Thanks again.

So you needed to seal a hole in the gas tank?

I thought you needed a fuel pump...

If you take a look at the drawing in my initial post: The damaged part was 77024A (the below tube). That's a filter right before the pump with a hairline crack which caused the motor to suck to much air or something like that. And that crack was glued.

@thwr Ah.
