Are there any markings on the plastic of the connector? It's going to be extremely difficult to find the exact part unless you can find a part number, brand/manufacturer, or ask Sicce likewise. That does not look like a 4-pin round trailer wiring connector as those don't have dividers on the male side (male = pins, female = sockets) and trailer connectors are usually larger and heavy built.

If you want to browse, go to DigiKey or Mouser and take a look at all of the barrel connectors, 4-pin or 4-position, and try to find one that matches. There are thousands of options though.

Use heat shrink butt splices and cut a part of the wires that DO NOT get submerged. Just cut and splice each wire into a heat shrink butt splice. You can lengthen any cord with this method.

I went through this exercise a while back and couldn't figure out what connector it was. I didn't want to cut the pump cord but as reefermadnes suggests, it might be the easiest solution.

Looks like I might have found the connector specs on Sicce's website (m16-4p), and a with a quick search I found what appears to be the connector.
