Yes Yugo I know what is your problem, The hoses end that are going into the motor becomes dry with time and you will need to buy some fasteners and tight them together " The smallest fastener I found in LOWES was 1/4 inch and it worked OK. ", I had the same issue but my leak was coming from a very tiny hole in one of the motors too. Don't use silicone or putty, make it looks professional and even that those pumps fit lose but the leak is not from those grommets, that's is how it was designed. I hope that can help.
