Pool plumbing sprang a new leak and wondering what the best approach might be to fix this. I could just tackle the new leak, image on the left, we have sprung a leak right above the pump. I tried marine epoxy, which worked on the pump on the right last year (see gray mess right above the pump image on right), but it didn't work on this latest leak. Would the best approach be to cut right below the T and simply redo the 10" going down to the pump? The T also has a hose valve on it that's never worked since I've owned it, so could redo the T and remove that if needed.
Option 2 is to redo more plumbing because I have a few band-aids in place as highlighted in image on the right: Pump on the left has this new leak above the pump, a cracked connection holding the check valve pipe to the pump with plumbers tape, and 2 stripped screw holes on the check valve, these other issues have been holding tight for past 2 yrs.
I might need to do the easiest fix first just to get up and running and worry about the rest later. But looking for input and suggestions. I did a quick trip to HomeDepot and they didn't have much in stock, probably going to have to order PVC online somewhere.
