Re: base gasket

just from looking at the parts breakdown on marine engine that looks to be correct. If you look they also call it the powerhead gasket. Someone told you it was leaking? Have you tried to tighten the bolts?

Re: base gasket

Normally the base gasket is between the powerhead and the midsection. It would be best if you confirm the issue, before you try to replace any parts....
