Water Pump issues
My water pump was leaking on my 1967 318 engine, when I went to take it off the pump blades were smashed and 3 are gone. The pump blades also carved there way into the pump about an 1/8 of an inch. The pump is replaceable but should I go looking for the fan blades?

Sounds like the bushing that centers/holds the shaft in place is gone.
I'd just replace the whole thing with a new high flow unit, especially since the housing was damaged.

I was going to get a new water pump but should I go through the mess of trying to get the fan blades. And if I should how would go out doing that?
