Default Fuel Pump 1998 K1500 Suburban

I just had my fuel pump replaced, but they said that they would have to drop the tank to replace it and I see no evidence underneath my car that shows that they actually dropped the tank... How do I know that they actually replaced the fuel pump which cost $1000 or that it wasn't some other minor problem? I live in Minnesota so there is rusting on the screws underneath not to mention it's been snowing and there is salt and sand on the roads, so I thought I'd see some type of evidence that they had dropped the tank.

it is hard to tell because all they do is undo a few bolts and the tank folds down(not actually removing it)you could of asked them to give you the old one back!....on my blazer i cut a section of floor out and had full view to replace(sometimes not a option)
