Is it possible to pop off this end cap?

So, I am looking to replace an anti-siphon sillcock. My wife and I recently moved in to our house and one of the outdoor houses leaks from the inside when we turn it on. From the outside of the house, I measured where the sillcock is relative to the bathroom window. Right where the sillcock should be from the inside of the house, there is this box that is connected to a sewer vent. Is it possible to pop off the threaded end cap there? If so, I think I could just pop out that plastic box. I think that if I can remove this box that I can see how the sillcock is connected to the inside pipes and determine if it is a job I can do myself. Thoughts? Thanks in advance. I am relatively new to these types of home repairs.

Paranoid about shower leak

I’m very much an amateur and tried to replace the showerhead that came with my rental - it was screwed on way too tight so I used a monkey wrench and a lock wrench. The showerhead arm rotated about 60 degrees clockwise from neutral but is now straightened back to normal. Pic is for reference but I really don’t want to cause any leakage behind the tile (I can’t see into it since the hole is just big enough for the shower arm to come through). Should I be concerned? And how will I know if there’s a leak? TIA

I have two of these that are both failing for different reasons. Would like to replace the trim without soldering in a new valve. Do they make new, better looking trim kits for this?

Replacement head for Moen Chateau kitchen faucet

We took off the aerator and head of our faucet to install a Brita filter. We’ve now installed two whole house filters, but lost the aerator and head to the faucet. I bought a replacement aerator, but can’t find the adapter I beed.
