Re: 1972 OMC leg...water in the upper gearcase
Welcome to Iboats!
That's a very subjective question my friend.
But, if you feel up to it...
Buy a kit and do ALL the seals, etc.
The hardest part is getting the thing apart.
Take your time, If a bolt is grouchy, give it plenty of heat and PB Blaster.
While the drive is split, put a water pump kit in it, consider re-sealing the lower as well.
Use the opportunity to clean up any corrosion and repaint the drive.
