A tractor that doesn't run is typically either spark or fuel. Given your symptoms I'd suspect fuel first. I'd try pulling the plug in the carburator and see if you get a steady stream of fuel for a minute or so. You could have junk plugging the fuel line or the outlet in the tank. I'd also look at the sediment bowl to see if its full of water - should be a screen there as well.
Concerning the belly pump - you will have to drop the pump - its heavy and is better done with 2 people. You'll have to remove the coupling to the transmission, remove the outside elbows where the hoses hook up and the handle the pull rod goes to. Then its just 4 bolts holding it up there. You can insert a rod down the pump to jam the gears and unscrew the coupling. Then you can put in a new seal. You can get a seal number off the old one and go to NAPA or most likely a dealer can get it also.
