How deep is the area along side of the brick walk, where the rock fell in??
I had my water fall area cave in when I had the pond empty, for cleaning. I rolled the liner back dug the dirt out,smothed up what was left of the side. Fliped the liner back in place. Put some of the leftover liner down and stacked rocks up the side, till it would be just under the last flat flagstone of the falls.
If along the walk is the area you are in question about.- - - -You may have to do something simular to what I did. Another posibility would be to flip the liner back into the pond and use old railroad ties as a retaining wall and place old carpet on the pond side of the ties. That way you could even make a shelf of about two ties deep and two ties wide. which when done would make a nice ledge for some marginal water plants.
I can't really see all the problem, but you may have to only repair the top " lets say the top 16" of the side" . Then you would only have to remove 16- - -18" of water. and lay the liner over a long pipe or pole that you lay over the pond on the side you are working on. I was guessing that you had laid the bricks over the liner along that side. Sounds a little involved, but really not too hard,as long as you take your time. and have some willing help. It sounds like you do have that.
By the way; with your pond, tucked away in that shade makes it look really peacefull & very secluded. Your water is also very clear in the pics. Now as for a pump try googleing. I don't know how to do the hyperlink thing so I will send you a Dmail with the address of websonline They have a large supply of pumps and the shipping is free. They beat everyone elses price, and they are not far from you.
And a 7500gph pump would give a flow like this pic
