After having service on my 1977 Mercruiser 120, I found that the engine will start in gear. Prior to the service, it only started in neutral. Any idea where the safety is located? Is it on the shift control or on the engine? I have the original single lever shifter with the black button.

It's in the throttle shifter control.
