Would this be legal as is, or do we have to rip the motor out and Jerry-rig something in its place?

Looking at the rules, I'm leaning more towards the rip it out approach which would be a shame. Other teams with more experience on this have any input?
If it's on your robot, that pump is powered by a motor that isn't in the Official List. So, sorry, not a robot part as-is.
