The strap wrench did it! Ironically I had hand tightened it so hard I had to strap wrench it loose then re-tighten it back with it lol. Thank you so much! That was such a good idea and so simple. I'm such an idiot to not think of that. I'll be sure to do that next time (hopefully there wont be...

Was able to finally lube the rings and double checked for debris and still dripping. I'm going to get a strap wrench to see if that will help, but I dont think it can get any tighter. If after that and I'm having same issue is my next step of action cutting out that section of pvc pipe (crying...

And one last update. The white specks/flakes appear to have gotten smaller or at least reduced. I'm not sure if that has to do with it being brighter out in the afternoon or that the filter has been running all day.
