Idler pulley bad, needs replaced
Repair went well using posted instructions. My advice is always replace pump as you will damage seal when pulling pump off shaft.

Washer leaking water during drain cycle
Laid washer back on a appliance dolly, removed the front cover, checked to see if the hose was touching the motor mount (it was). Removed the drain hose from the pump and standoffs, removed the hose and disk from the back of the washer that holds the hose. Replaced the hose on the pump, turn the standoff to move the hose farther from the motor mount, and install it in the disk. May be easier to measure the hose and do the disk first as it is not easy to get the hose bent when it is installed first on the pump.
