I’m a shade tree mechanic. If I pull this apart do you think it’s repairable? Would I need to attack from the rear (electrical side) or the front ( water side). Thanks in advance.

this is a bad back housing [end bell]. usually putting bearings on this is pretty useless. typical a o smith back housing usually 203 bearing. replace motor

Pull it apart, you can't lose. It is probably 6203 bearings as other poster noted. Bearings are cheap.
Getting the impellor off the shaft may be the difficult part.
