    Assume you mean pressure vessel is leaking?

    Pressure vessel can be bought separately, would need to modify or add pipework if it's not the exact same dimensions or the bolt holes are different.

    This company are distributors for Waterpak:

    Might be a good opportunity to go submersible.
    If it’s an option it’s a better system.

    Just to give an idea of cost, see here...

    ...for various sizes of tank, the horizontal versions have a mounting plate for the existing pump. The vertical tanks are fed from the base, depending on the space available, you could just leave the tank in it's current position and connect to a new tank beside it, obviously need to reroute connection from leaking tank to new tank.
