The auto electrician came today n said it was a fuse relay holder which was badly pitted So he cut it out n replaced it with a new fuse holder. Ive noticed now though that the fuel pump just keeps running with the ignition switched on.(but engine not running)will it do any damage 2 anything on the car.

No, it will not damage anything as excess pressure will go to tank via return line like it does when going along the road.
