pool pump

i got a pump boy i had no idea they were so hard to get the motor out lotsa plastic.
it had some kinda plasric crap aaround it it smelled like a marker when i cut it with a hacksaw but i eventually got the windings out one came out in one piece the other not so much. i also got a pool skimmer i think would that b extruded ali or stainless steel?
also are there different size pool pumps?

Is it alum windings in the motor? Thats all I seem to find in them. I would say the skimmer is aluminum. My yard calls it A1-junk shop

Fom the few that I have done it seems that some of the end caps are all cast aluminun and that others have a bearing that is magnetic. Trying to determine if its worth it to break them down. I just had a friend that is in the pool business lay 20 on me at no cost. If they average 30 pounds apiece that would be around 120 /150 dollars as is.

ah i see i think the windings were copper cause the ali ones seem to be lighter i think i maybe got a pound of copper or close to it got some ali screws or maybe stainless steel not sure what they make screws out of not magnetic.
