It's a solenoid, not a pump.

For what they are the prices of genuine parts are high, I went after market for both:
Ebay canisters seem to be OK - mine from Hong Kong had its part number ground off, I suspect its genuine VW part but made chinese market.
The OEM pump Purge Valve said Bosch so I just got a genuine Bosch pump Purge Valve.

Thanks for the help I will look at it this week and try and order the N80 valve and the canister is it a DIY job or do I need a mechanic?

How can you see if you the fuel cap is damaged?.I opened the fuel cap and I don't see anything so I don't think it's the fuel cap. I will try and change the N80 valve and canister and see if the code clears

The carbon canister is very easy, unclip from bracket and unclip pipes.

Purge valve is a bit more involved - there is a DAP N80 You tube video that covers this:
