Yes indeed, it is a lift pump, usually for diesel. It is still on the spec for a NYC garbage truck, and it's plumbed with tees and checks to be used as a helper via switch on the dash. The end cap comes off to reveal a screen.

looks just like the elect fuel pump from my 85 nisson king cab

yes it comes off for a filter

the relay looking thing looks like the relay under the dash that turned the pump on as long as it had oil pressure IIRC

looks like it might have been for primming the barge after it had been in dry dock for a while

should be a higher pressure than most other banger pumps like it

A lot of the "land yachts" of that era used this type of pump to stay "afloat". The output was plumbed into an unused vent fitting on top of the yachts fuel tank. A long hose was fitted to the suction side, which was inserted into other vehicles fuel tanks. The pump was then activated till the yachts tank was full, or the object car was empty and another car was located. The only economical way to keep the massive barges afloat.
