I would guess the filter housing is the problem, check the seal around the lid / filter.

If there's air in the pipe between, then its likely the filter area or perhaps before that.

It could be the pipe between the filter and the pump or likely (42) at fault.

Was the filter / seal good quality ? , a poor pattern one (to be fair I have not seen a poor / bad one) could not seal properly.
