I find several resources that 分 = minutes is pronounced either "fun" or "bun"? Which is it?
How to pronounce 分?

The pronunciation of 分D depends on the minute. It's a bit tricky as it depends on the minute. It's a bit tricky but once you remember it, it'll be easy.
一分=いっぷん
二分=にふん
三分=さんふん
四分=よんふん
五分=ごふん
六分=ろっぷん
七分=ななふん
八分=はっぷん
九分=きゅうふん
十分=じゅっぷん Or じっぷん
十一分=じゅういっぷん
十二分=じゅうにふん
Hope this helps!

Arigato gozaimashita Risa-san.
That does explain it, but I realize something -- the minute uses "pun", but references on the Internet use "bun". Why is that?

That's because the standard reading of the kanji 分(stand alone) is ぶん。
The kanji 分 is also used to talk about fractions.
E.g. 四分の一=よんぶんのいち 1/4 Or 1 quarter
