There is no pump, the vacuum is from the inlet manifold - rear bottom you will see a pipe connected. Behind the pollen filter is a vacuum tank.

Assuming that engine is petrol of course.

Diesel engines do need a pump which is often part of the alternator. Don't know what was fitted to the Omega 2.2 diesel :-\

Check the vac guides written by MDTM.  They are for a V6, so ignore the multiram stuff, but the rest is the same :y
