Ahhh, ok, so the pump didn't fail, it just didn't fit the bill. Ok, I understand now.

Ok when you're back, I'd like to see how the piping for the pump intake looks. Ie., from the sump wall to the pump intake.

If you do indeed have a pinhole, my guess is it's along this section. If it is downstream of the pump (ie., after the output), then the line is going to be pressured up (particularly since you're lifting from a basement to the main floor) and you will have either leaking or saltcreep - ie., there will be a visual indication of a leak. So if you don't know about it, you probably don't have a leak in that particular section.
