Alcohol kills most bacteria and some viruses but not mold spores. You need the peroxide to kill Fungus. Iso may be a bit aggressive for some applications though. wear gloves when using the peroxide,unlike me

Plain hot water should be all that is required.

As long as it is thoroughly washed out you are fine.
I used HCl (1M concentration) to remove some buildup on buckets before. Made quick work of what probably would have teken 30-60mins of hard scrubbing. Gotta step away from the fumes, though, bwahaha. Obviously, not an option for a pump.
I'd refer to the pump manual on maintenance. Make sure you don't use some chemical that destroys the interior parts.
cracking it open and taking a soapy brush to everything is probably enough.
