Is there a pump fitting adapter to stop this inlet leak?

[rock]

Just to update the team, I ripped up the wires from yesterday, my first 220v wiring job, and started over today:

I found that this irrigation tubing cutter does a nice job on the electrical conduit:

And, I learned how to remove the old multi-piece waterproof fittings from the old conduit:

I realized it's easier to first get the conduit all settled, and then do the wiring:

I cut off the old connectors at the motor end, and put new crimp connectors on:

And I made sure to leave at least six extra inches of wire in the junction box:

Since it's outside, I added di-electric grease to all the connections:

And, when I compared the old and new wire, I belatedly realized the old wire was smaller than the 10AWG that I bought:

I wasn't sure if we're supposed to use di-electric grease under the wire nuts:

And then, just before buttoning it up, I tilted the wire nuts upward, and high:

Here's a birds-eye view of the result, just before putting the waterproof cover on:

I wasn't sure if I needed to raise the box off the ground, so I will attach it with bolts later:

And, here's the view all done - ready for the smoke test tomorrow (as I finished well after dark):

Right now, I have to pack for camping, but, the good news is that it's all buttoned up, and, well, the *original* leaks are wholly fixed!

None of my plumbing work is leaking, except a drip at the inlet to the filter (even though I lubed and tightened it as much as I could by hand):

And a few drips on the filter itself (even though I was judicious about tightening evenly like we do lug nuts on a car):

However, the pump itself has now developed a leak even though I lubed the big o-ring:

And, I lubed the little o-ring on the impeller:

The key problem is that there are new leaks, at the interface between the pool pump and the motor.

I think there is a "seal" there that I've never replaced. Maybe I damaged it. Dunno - but *both* motors are leaking from that location!

Unfortunately, I have the "band" tightened as far as it will go by hand:

I have to fix today whatever it is that is leaking.
Do you have any suggestions? DIYs?

EDIT: I found this DIY for the Sta-Rite Max-e-Glas II pump {mine has an AO Smith QC1102 1.0x1.65SF 1.65 HP motor}:

I should report back that all the new plumbing solved all but one of the existing plumbing leaks:

Since the mineral exchange thing was leaking, I ended up cutting it out.

I had to replace the pump seals - here I'm pushing out half the pump seal with my handy dandy pump seal removal tool:

Videos on the web at http://wetheadpumprepair.com said to use silicone seal but US Seal says to use their lubricant and not to use silicone or teflon:

Sta-Rite says in the owners manual to use dish detergent:

Following instructions at http://wetheadpumprepair.com, I accidentally didn't tuck the yellow capacitor wire away so it wore through in a day:

Here you see the wire repair:

It turns out that the wetheadpumprepair.com instructions are wrong when they say to remove the stationary V switch:

And, they're wrong when they say you need to loosen the capacitor bracket:

My 7/16" inch Craftsman wrench fit on the flat spot of the shaft without having to remove those two components:

All the leaks but one have now been fixed but I haven't painted the white replacement pipe black yet:

Now the only leak is at the proprietary Sta-Rite unions and the filter itself:

The top (INLET) leaking proprietary Sta-Rite fitting is molded with the following:
UIII 192P THREAD-SLIP UIII 196P-SLIP-THREAD, 2" UNION ASSEMBLIES

The bottom (OUTLET) fitting says:
UIII 192P THREAD-THREAD UIII 193P SLIP-SLIP, 2" UNION ASSEMBLIES

Some of the filter clamps seems to be missing circlips - which I can't find in any hardware store:

Unfortunately, the circlips don't have a part number and the Sta-Rite unions are not on this diagram from the owners manual:

So, the summary is that only the filter is leaking - and I'm held up because I don't know the part number for the o-ring for the proprietary Sta-Rite fittings and I can't find the circlip for the Sta-Rite filter clamp.

EDIT: Calling Pentair, I find the following part numbers:

For the leaking inlet union:
a) Order the Pentair union 1/2 kit -- part # PKG 188 -- each package has (2) each of the union 1/2 collar, adapter & oring

Flat washer 24850-0007
Retaining ring 24850-0016
Part # for the o-ring is 24850-0009 (thickness is .575" + or - .015" (30 durometer) with a nominal inner diameter of 25 inches)

Pkg. 188 2" Slip 1/2 Union Kit or Pkg. 189 2" NPT 1/2 Union Kit.
Includes 2 each:
a. U11-200P Union Collar
