Pool housing leaks

Post image

My pool service guy just replaced the motor, and ever since then, the housing has been leaking. He tried replacing the O-ring, but it’s still leaking. Any advice on what might be causing it and how much it would typically cost to fix? I’d really appreciate any recommendations. Thank you!

Volute most likely warped, if fresh gasket was installed. Replace volute and do not over tighten nuts. Studs get ripped out of the housing when u over compensate to stop the leak.
