Replacing EKWB A240G pump

[LTFoReal]

So I bought the EKWB A240G after watching videos on youtube and it works great for cooling my GPU and CPU. My problem however is the fact that the pump is pretty cheap and after about 3 weeks, I noticed that all the coolant was almost completely gone from the pump. After further inspection I saw that there was a huge leak under the pump and so I quickly got to clean up and maintenance. I thought I may have attached the tubes wrong so I took them all out and reapplied new tubes, turns out it was the pump. This pump will start leaking slowly and then break out into quick drips when fan revs up to keep GPU and CPU cool.

 

long story short, I really don't want to wait the time to RMA it through EKWB as it'll take like a week to get to them, a week to process, and another week or two to send back (I'm not mad at them, just don't want to go through that hassle on a cheap pump). Are their any compatible, safe, aluminum pumps that I could replace this thing with?

 

Ive been looking at the XSPC X4 Photon 170 Reservoir/Pump Combo or a varient (but not sure if it is fully aluminum)

and the Enermax NEOChanger 400ml RGB LED Reservoir and Pump (don't know if this is fully aluminum either but one of the answers in Amazon say that it can be used as a replacement to this kits pump)

 

If there are any other suggestions I'm all open to hear them. Thanks.
