I would disconnect fuel pump and check wires with a meter, do you have the wiring diagram as it's pretty easy to follow as not much wiring in a mini, the diagram should be in the red workshop manual, mine is slightly different as I only have a centre clock, just get a long length of wire to put on other end of wire you think is pump and run it round back of car then a simple continuity check between the two wires will identify if it's right, then can make sure it's on right terminal. It's how I did mine because a few wires were difficult to identify colour as they had faded.
