On a 316, is the only pump the lift pump on the cylinder head? No electric pump.
Mines been sat with the fuel pipes off for about 6 weeks and I'm struggling to get any fuel up to the carb.
Do I just keep cranking or am I going to have to do a tow start on it, like a diesel pump?

There is only the mechanical pump on the side of the head.
Make sure there are no air leaks in the fuel lines.

Schadenfreude - the German's haven't got a word for that.

Yeah that was my guess. Might try sticking a gallon in the tank, it's pretty low
