    Merc Leaking under power head

    I just replaced water pump and I’m getting water coming out of the cowling, I took cowling off and it appears to be coming from under power head, could it be something at top of pipe between bottom of power head and water pump?

    1984 lower unit interchange

    I have a 50hp, fresh water Mercury long shaft motor with a bad shift seal bushing. It is long deteriorated. Does anyone know what years/engine size that will interchange with it? I can’t get that bushing to budge, drilled 4 small holes in it hoping to free it up, no luck
