Cut pipe at point where the leak or split is, then push both ends in a piece of rubber tubing. Make sure it is a tight fit though.

thought the units were sealed so you need to replace the whole thing?

I don`t know,I hope there is a fix,I`m going to dismantle the unit Saturday and try some sealer,I hope it opens up and I don't break it and make it worse  :undecided:
