2001 2.2 hdi poor hot start

Hi all, I thought I was registered her but I must have forgot log in, so not quite a new member.
Anyway I would be most grateful of any help.
145,000 mls owned for eight years regularly looked after but now its causing me concern.
It starts fine from cold and drives normally but recently, after a hot soak it has started taking a little extra cranking to start.
I have heard long cranking is a sign the pump is going but I would have thought this would be at any temperature ?
Iam sure I can see a slight trace of brass coloured powder in the bottom of the fuel bowl, or Iam just being paranoid.
It recently passed mot smoke test, as it has DEF pass level is 0.5 this is running at 0.1
I do have Peugeot planet.
Any advice would be grateful.
