I noticed our dishwasher was leaking last night. Below is a stock picture of the pump assembly, part #wpw10195599 which would actually be positioned upside down from what you see in the picture. The water appeared to be coming from the round hole that is circuled in red.
I can only find the entire assmble for sale, but would like to try to fix the actuall part that's defective first.
Does anyone know what the white part is that's circled?
Does it make sense that that's where water could be leaking from?
If so, is there anything I can do besides replace the entire assembly?

OK. I was able to find out that it's called the "diverter motor". It spins the wash arm. It seems that its leeking through a grommet seal where the white hole is. So, I was able to order a new "diverter motor" and grommet seal. Hopefully that will fix it? Thanks
