The female electrical connector that plugs onto the two prongs of my fuel pump (E30 M42, in tank, under rear seat) is cracked and falls off sometimes. This is the straight connector that provides power to the fuel pump. Anyone know where to buy a new one, part number, or other ideas on what new parts can replace the old one?

61131378408 for the connector housing. Get a few of them as they always are broken on E30s, just look under the hood. Rubber boot is unknown....could never find it anywhere.
If the actual wires/connectors are busted (they are sealed connectors), you would need 2 of these (inside the above mentioned housing) - 61130007442 (larges gauge wire) or 61130007441

I'll see if I can get by without the connector housing 61131378408 for now.

The new ones fit snugly onto the fuel pump's pins, and I'm going to try to connect the new wire connectors into the existing wires after I pick up some heat shrink butt connectors.

It's a $4 part. Why would you not replace it?
Thanks for the heads up, I do not want to be the source of a traffic jam.
