Leak from drain plug

[bigzeto]

Hey guys, I did a complete repair on a Pentair Whisperflo pump (internal seals, new diffuser o-ring, and housing gasket). After getting everything hooked back up, I was getting a small drip from one of the drain plugs, so I decided to get a new plug which came with a new o-ring. As you can see in the attached video, I am still getting a leak from what appears to be the pump drain plug. Any thoughts/suggestions?

Thanks in advance!

wow, that ain't no drip, it's a flow SORRY
Wrap the plug threads with a few turns of tape seal.

I was hoping it would be a simple remedy like that. I'll give it a shot. Thank you.
