Adding 12 v pump

I have a 12 v pump I want to add to this trailer. Thinking of just adding it in a box, copying @Racer on his design sorta. Just a smaller box and a single pump. Second option would be to bend a piece of aluminum plate to mount it too. Just curious if the box is really worth it for protecting the pump. I will only use it on a rare occurrence. In adding that pump, I was going to move the fuel tank to beside the 8 gpm machine. Where the 5 gal pails are. Anyone see an issue with that?

Make sure it gets ventilation, I burned one up, just had it screwed onto my tank, was running it in direct sunlight for a while
They sell heat diverting shields, not sure if needed, but could be why ppl go through them
