We purchased a home with a pool a few years ago. We noticed a cracked return housing, which sounds like no big deal, but local stores laugh when we mention the faceplate has 6 screw holes. Our pool is from the era prior to standardized 4 hole faceplates, and I’m looking for guidance.

We were told today that we should probably just “buy a new pool”, but the fitting issue is the only problem, so that seems excessive. Are there resources to get older parts? Any other options that will not break the bank? Thanks in advance!
