After a recent trip to the coast where I bumped into some submerged foundations I noticed this hole in my lower unit. I think I got lucky in that it punched thru into the cavity where water is anyway. Do ya'll agree. I don't see any water in the the oil. I think I will plug the hole with some JB weld. I've got some marinetex I could use. Odd how its a perfectly round hole. Almost like a plug was there. The large paint scrape happened at the same time.
