They definitely spin up and are audibly on when you peek under the back of the car, no real deviation in noise but I can add it to the list after ruling out the coil and ignition module.
If it helps, I could hear the fuel pump quite easily from inside the car. I also replaced the fuel filter at the same time. It was OEM, and lasted(?) until 2008. I replaced the filter again when I got a used fuel accumulator early this year. Mine was leaking pressure down and being a ***** to start. Cured.
