Unfortunately it does not work this way. Guessing never works right. You have to watch the parts inside while the washer is working with different water levels to determine exactly where it's leaking from. Here are the breakdown diagrams and Replacement parts for Maytag SAV3655AWW WASHER-TOP LOADING | AppliancePartsPros.com Gene.

One of them, the break and bearing removal tool, is no longer available. You said that the washer is less than a year old. If this is correct than it's under warranty and Maytag should take care of it. Gene.

Yes, it is. If you feel you can do it, post the serial number of the washer for the correct part number. Gene.

Also you can find the installation instructions in one of our previous threads: http://forum.appliancepartspros...r-belt-amana-washer.html Review it and decide if it is worth fixing or not. Gene.
