I notice when the ignition is on there is total silence, I seem to remember some electrical component(s) under the hood would make a slight noise.

I changed the OVP around 15 years ago, I wonder if it's gone again...

Excess fuel is returned to tank continuously when the pump/engine are running.

It would be in order to now check the ignition system for operation. Sparks being produced, and at the right time. As porkface noted, there is a "running" signal produced by the ignition system that tells the pump relay to remain "on".

Check the fuse on the top of the OVP.
