I'm replacing the diffuser on my pump but I can't get the screws holding the diffuser in place to tighten because the hole threads are stripped. I'm thinking of using an adhesive to keep the screws in place. What underwater adhesive would work best in this situation, or do you have another solution that's worked for you? Thanks.

Not sure if they are called the same in US...Helicoil like these:

We have Helicoil here in the US as well... contact your local auto parts place, and tell them the size, and thread pitch of the screws.
Or bring a screw into them so they can measure it.
I also think that you can get them in stainless which would be the best for your application.
