You have a 240V-only panel. It does not support neutral.
It provides hot-hot-ground, which is perfectly modern and legal. It is adequate to power any 240V load. It cannot power a 120V or 120V-240V split load.
It is not a 120/240 split phase panel that has been grandfathered. If it was, it would have neutral and not ground.
I gather the big flexible black cordage goes to a 240V pump. It appears the wire colors have faded. It would have been correctly tapped hot-hot-ground, and black, taped white and green are legit colors for that connection.
Looking at the updated photos, yes - this is an all-240 setup. Note that only the black and ...?orange? Wires actually connect to anything.
Double-taps. NO.
It appears that power visits this panel, then travels onward to another subpanel or point-of-use.
Note how 2 wires are landed on each main lug. Not allowed unless the lug's instructions specifically say double-tapping is OK. It's especially important to follow instructions when aluminum wire is in use! So these should come off, and each pole should go to a 3-tap lug, with a short pigtail (in the larger wire size) to go up to these existing lugs.
Instead, if these wires are paralleled from the same supply wires, that is not allowed. Remove the smaller wire and downbreaker to the ampacity limits of the larger wire.
That 120V doesn't belong there
This is very typical of 240V-only panels: along comes some clown who wants 120V, and doesn't care that it's a 240V-only panel. (many are unable to conceptualize that there even is such a thing as a 240V-only panel, they want to install a 120V load, therefore every panel is 120V!) And so they just "slap in a breaker" and go ahead and bootleg neutral off the ground wire.
This work should be torn out on sight. There should never be current flowing on ground, except when a ground fault is occurring.
Edit: looking at your pix, that's plainly what happened, the 120V GFCI was an afterthought and he just bootlegged neutral because he didn't know any better. Into the trash it goes.
Dealing with those 120V loads
They never should have been installed in the first place, and need to be replaced.
Lamps are easy: many modern LED fixtures and most fluorescent ballasts will work on a range of 110-277 volts. Wire them up 240 and done.
For pumps and water handling bits, you can get 240V motors or 240V versions of the appliances. (no 120/240 split phase).
If all else fails, small 120V loads can be supplied by a 240V/120V isolation transformer. Using a cheaper "step-up/step-down transformer" is very tricky and I don't recommend it.
Edit: That GFCI+receptacle - gone. If you have a compelling reason to need a 120V convenience outlet there, you'll need to pull an entirely new 120V circuit from the main panel. Or alternately, convert this subpanel to split-phase by pulling a neutral from the main panel and replacing this subpanel with a suitable one with a separate neutral and ground bus.
If you continue the light as a 240V light, you'll need to change the white wire to a color. You are not allowed to tape white wires when the work is in conduit.
GFCI
I can't quite make what I'm seeing in this panel. It looks like a 4-space GE Qline panel, and you have elected to install their half-width "double stuff" breakers, filling 1.5 of the 4 spaces.
There has to be GFCI protection in here somewhere. It may be at the main panel on the 60A. This is one thing you shouldn't try to "grandfather".
The problem is GFCIs are bulky breakers. They don't come in double-stuff. So you'll need 2 whole spaces (those occupied, plus the empty half-space to the left) just for the 30A pump 2-pole GFCI.
Since it's a 240V-only panel, all breakers must be 2-pole. That will leave you 2 spaces for one more 2-pole GFCI, and that will have to power everything else. I suppose you could use a 15A or 20A based on which wire sizes you have installed. As far as outlets, the same rules apply to 240V/15A as 120V/15A; you can have as many outlets as you want shared on the circuit. You'll have 3600W on a 15A circuit, so power won't be a problem.
Best Answer
No never; you can never split a cable like that.
What you can do is transition to EMT conduit and individual THHN wires, which will pack nicely in EMT conduit.
I would start by heading to a proper electrical supply house for a cable clamp that is a proper fit for your large cable. You need a proper electrical supply because they have both the depth of stock and knowledge. Home Depot etc. will sell you the wrong thing with a smile.
Next, I would buy a large steel box, say 4-11/16" square deep, or 6" square, with knockouts that will fit that cable clamp.
I would use EMT metal conduit to plumb out of a knockout on the service panel, to a convenient location. This can be just a foot or two. There, install the box. Use the largest size EMT the panel knockout can accept (3/4", surely) and correct fittings. If the junction box hole is too large, they make special washers to solve that, but then, you can't use the EMT as ground path, so run a #10 ground wire.
There should be a #10-32 tapped hole in the back of the box for a grounding screw. If you are wiring a ground wire through the EMT, pigtail off this.
Then, you terminate your cable in the large junction box in the normal way (give yourself 12" of wire length). Terminate the ground wire to the box chassis or other grounds.
For each of the hot and neutral wires, obtain the appropriate gauge copper THHN/THWN-2 wires with enough length to reach the breaker, run through the EMT and give 12" spare length in the box. You need one white or gray for the neutral, and two of any other color but green. Black and black is fine.
Run the three individual THHN wires through the EMT conduit, terminate one end at the breaker or neutral bar. Inside the box tie the individual wires to the wires of the cable.
Three THHN copper wires of #6 will certainly fit in a 3/4" EMT conduit, and are good for 70A. This is more than #6 cable.
If the wires are small enough, you can use large wire nuts for the splice, otherwise use right-sized Polaris style connectors. If your cable is aluminum, that is fine but you must use Polaris.
