99% of pumps can only rotate one direction,,
rotating the pump the opposite direction will cause the pump to blow the seal at the input shaft,,
The pump can be an exact replacement, but speced for the wrong rotation,, and you have a problem.
Some pumps can have the rotation changed by the user,,, by flipping some part of the pump.
Also, if the inlet and outlet to the control valve are swapped at the time of connection, the pump will have no relief valve, and the seal at the pump will blow.
Having the correct pump (rotation) and having the correct fluid direction flow is critical,, do not guess,,,
Pretty sure that's what has happened, although I'm not sure how. Apparently I need to check the seal, and double check the pump direction.
