After the freeze in Texas earlier this year, I had to replace my motor. When doing that, I couldn't find the impeller ring. Thinking it had broken off & was in the strainer basket. I couldn't get the strainer lid off & had to basically beat it off.
This evidently caused my leaks seen in the pictures. If you can't make out the leaks, they seem to be right at the junction of PVC & the top of pump.
First, are these leaks enough to cause the pump to not prime?
Is there an easy fix? If not, do I need to replace everything up to the filter?
