fuel problem?

last week when i was coming home from work my blazer started surging about a mile from where i get off the freeway. when i got off the freeway, my truck died about 1/2 mile before i got home. i am getting no gas to my carburetor. i bypassed the fuel filter i bolted to my frame, still no gas to my carburetor. i just pulled my mechanical fuel pump off my motor. (its a small block 383) when i pushed the lever on the pump, gas shot out. i pulled out the fuel pump push rod and it looks fine, the ends are square. it doesn't seem worn down.
my question is, what should i do next? i know i have about a 1/2 tank of gas. is it possible that the cam lobe for the fuel pump wore down?
when i was turning over the motor there was no pushing or pulling from the fuel pump when i put my finger over the fuel line hole.
