The Vickers power steering pump is a Vane Pump, not a piston pump. Motion Industries is one Vickers distributor I know in California but there are others. Someone at any Vickers distributor may be old enough to remember the V series. FluiDyne is a copycat seller (good products) I used their stuff on a number of occasions when I was in business.
There is a number Stamped in the center section (called the Ring) like 1.5 or 2. This is the rated flow of the pump at 1200RPM. I am sure Fluidyne can help you. The internal parts, rotor and vanes are the same for various flow ratings. If they can’t get a 1.5 and they can get a 2 that will work. The flow control in the pump determines what goes to the steering gear.

Location: NorCal		My pump operates just fine it it leaks profusely. I actually found a NORS kit for it but the O rings in the kit that seal the two pump halves were shrunk from age and leaked as bad as the originals.

Location: So. Cal		If you just need the o-rings, measure them and order new ones on McMaster. Not sure which material is best, but probably Viton.
https://www.mcmaster.com/o-rings/

If you do, please report back here and let us know which ones you used. If you buy multiples, I could buy some of them from you to offset your cost. My pumps have always worked fine, but you never know when it will decide to go.

The OE material was Buna N, 70 durometer (that’s the hardness of the o ring material) which is a standard, and could be more available than Viton. Viton is typically used for a higher temp application. Any Hydraulic repair shop or hydraulic hose distributor should have every size o ring required. Even Home Depot has a selection. If you are ordering from, say McMaster Carr, o rings are measured I.D. (Inside Diameter) and cross section. Since these pumps were before manufacturers started metric, the o ring cross section will be, 1/16” or 3/32” or 1/8”. So if the I.D. Measures 1-3/4” and the cross section is 1/8” , therefore (1-3/4 + 1/8 + 1/8 = 2” O.D. (Outside Diameter). Hope this helps to find nice new o rings.
P/S the shaft seal should be available from most Bearing Houses like Motion InD or Applied Power.
