Probably be easier and less frustrating to go buy a whole new bowl assembly. We have TSC and Family Farm and Home here and they both carry the whole unit.

I've found that teflon tape twisted into a string and installed there seals very well when the original packing is shot.

Stuff the Teflon tape into the nut. Won't have to tighten very tight.
