Some carbs do indeed have a return....I might well be that....Oli.

Yes, DGAVs do often have a return. Make sure you plumb them up the right way round though. I've got an old one somewhere in the garage I can
photo of if you're not sure which pipe is which.

Yes, you only need a pump on the inlet side.

We ran our carb with the outlet blocked using a short length of pipe and some round bar. Used only the inlet and had no problems in about 3000
miles... This was with a facet electric pump not the original though.
Have you plumbed a return line back to the tank?
