Ran tank dry, burned fuel pump?

I've got some oily stuff around my fuel pump, so I'm not sure if it is disrupting the electrical connection. Or did I burn up the fuel pump by trying to get off the road in first gear with the starter moving me to safety

I tried searching, and I'm almost done repainting my car, yes the gold is gone, but I don't want to get it dirty with oily stuff from under the car just yet.

Well, I guess my question answered itself. I was able to get a picture of my progress. Hope you like it.



Trying to decided if I should paint the bumper blue, or keep it white. Yea its going to take some cleanup, but the rubber bits should be easy to clean.

Forgot to give the reason why the pump wasn't working. I didn't have the ground hooked up for the license plate lights.
