Leaking inlet assembly. Can I fix without buying the new part? There’s a small crack in the underside of the plastic. Flex seal?

You could try running a soldering iron along the well-dried crack, but a new part or second-hand from eBay probably isn't much.

You can try a 2 part plastic epoxy to limp it along until a new one shows up

Replace. Flex Seal might limp you along until the new part is delivered, but it will always be a time bomb.

Of you must, buy resin and cast the whole thing in a big block of resin...

It's a pressure line. Replace it. And check the others.

Your problem is not a leak, it is loss of structural integrity of a part with multiple connections and that carry pressurized liquid. Replace the part
