Yes it can.
Agreed. I had it happen to me on a Ford 390, the fuel pump is driven by an off set circle on the end of the camshaft, on the bigger gear driven by the timing chain that pushes a lever on the fuel pump. If the rubber diaphragm in the pump cracks or leaks for any reason it will begin to pump gasoline in to the crankcase.

There are two kinds of fuel pumps that your pickup can have, Mechanical, or Electric. More than likely you have a Mechanical, the Mechanical fuel pump is located on the side of the engine (pretty easy to replace), you can follow the fuel line from the fuel filter down to it, and just google an image of a mechanical fuel pump you will find it.
