It's the sort that clicks as it pumps which I know some people don't like but I've grown so used to it now I hardly notice it. As Jon mentions though there's no safety cut off so if the ignition is on its pumping That didn't seem to bother me when I was young and foolish but in these safety conscious days I've been trying to work out an easy method of stopping it when the worst happens.

Just use an electric pump to prime.
I went fully electric with a Huco pump. I have no issues with the pump at all, but in hindsight as you do not need all the emergency cut-offs paraphernalia, an Electric pump used for priming only, is probably a simpler install and solution.
Just a thought,
