Hey all, I recently bought a second hand infinia 7225 peninsula, which came with a water box sump. I was leak testing it on my porch, as the previous owner had two chipped corners and I didn't trust without verification, and I didn’t see my dogs leash metal clip underneath which caused the bottom or crack. Does anyone have anything similar to this? It's a really unfortunate bummer and not really sure what to do for a replacement this size or any alternatives that use the U-turn so the intake and return are on the same side of the sump. Any help would be awesome! If someone has an extra, perhaps glass panes for a fix, suggestions on a new one or anything is very appreciated. Thanks!

Attached are two photos of the layout as well as the crack.
