I need to clean it up and get a pump for it.

Any suggestions on the pump as I am leaning towards the Reeflo ORCA needle wheel pump with intake venturi.
That's a beckett skimmer so what you want is just a pump that puts out a good flow at a little bit of backpressure. I.e, if you want to use the ORCA needlewheel pump you should use a needlewheel skimmer, the design is a bit different. If it were me, I'd look at something like a GenX/Mak4 for that skimmer based on its size. There may be other suitable pumps as well. Heck, a regular ORCA would work really well too.
