Mend Kleenmaid DW5 Dishwasher Leak Impeller Pump

With my kleenmaid DW5 is it possible to pull out the impella pump unit?

I am trying to stop my kleenmaid dishwasher from leaking. I pulled out everything that I could from the inside bottom of it with screws etc and I am down to the bowl bit which is squarish with the impeller pump and and valve outlet etc but I dont seem to be able to pull this unit out. I think it must have put in on the bottom of the dishwasher when it was upside down. Is this correct. As I actually was cleaning out all the crap in the filters and impeller from what I could see sitting in the bottom of the bowl and when I tried to reasemble everything the dishwasher now leaks from underneath and I dont know why? any ideas?

Just thought I would update you guys on what happened since my last question about the kleenmaid leaking after I pulled it apart and put it back together and it leaked. I did it again and this time with the square round gasket(whatever you call it) that goes over the bottom bowl containing the impeller and valve outlet etc. I made sure the screws (star pattern) were done up really tight . Then I dismantled the top wash arm and saw it had a broken plastic ring inside actually blocking the water coming through therefore not washing the top rack properly. There is still a small drip underneath on the left but hey I am over pulling it apart and dont know if I should pull the unit out and turn it upside down to look. As long as its not going into a chipboard cupboard and I have a tray underneath it. This was the first time for months it has actually washed anything better than me hand washing.
