You might get away with building up the worn face with bronze and then refacing it on a milling machine. What type of seal did they use ? Looking at the pics, it looks like an old rope seal, these were used in Vintage cars and other old pumps.

The switch may be repairable, it might fit in a 4 jaw chuck and you could build it up with bronze and machine it back to size .
