95 Impreza died again - fuel delivery related this time

Hi all
After putting the engine in last week, the car ran fine for days and
today it died again.

Looking at it, I am not getting fuel going into the filter. When I turn
the key to start, there's no fuel flow at all. Checked the voltage on
the fuel pump - nothing. Clearly the pump is not being powered.

I hear a "click <one second silence> click" when I turn the key to the
position before start - that noise is coming from the fuel pump relay,
I take it?
That 'click--click' is the relay applying voltage to the pump to prime
the fuel pressure, right?

Where is that relay located? (it got late and couldn't figure out where
it came from, laying upside down looking up into the dash). Where does
the fuel pump pick up its ground?

As a side point, with me having had the engine out, are there
connections from the engine that would cause the fuel pump to not run?
(I almost doubt it, but I ask just in case there are some weird
'gotchas' in play when it comes to the fuel pump..)

Thanks, guys!
Remco
