Default PS pump replacement some questions about it

i've almost finished to replace ps pump today, removed the old one, so tomorrow I will be ready to complete work... New hoses, and spark plug wires too

anyway

i've removed pulley from the old one and installed on new pump, (there was need to rub some grease on drive shaft in order to get pulley installed on it, without grease was pretty impossible to turn the pusher. I hope pulley will not slip on shaft due to the grease)

so now I've this situation.....

Pump is a cardone reman, is it a good choice?
And also i need to know if that in-line filter installation would be reccomended since i've already have a magnetic magnapure filter on return line??

However, there was copper flecks in fluid that was coming out of the pump

Did you note the pulley position before removal, can you see on old pump the location of old pulley?

No I didd't Note it. I would assume that right position Is when pusher Don't turn it anymore (like this case)
