I have a Hayward Max-flo pump that is leaking from the bottom, I can not find a crack in the housing so I can only assume it is leaking from the seal...

Is the whine coming from the pump or the motor? I'd be willing to bet it's coming from the motor. If so, the only thing you can do is replace it or...
