1986 6 hp Johnson Silencing Pads

[ruddy mudder]

Removed the powerhead from a 1986 6 hp Johnson along with the lower unit and the silencing pads dropped out with no warning. Question is, there are upper and lower locations on the exhaust housing where they can go, not seeing which ones they fell out of do any of you know if they go in the upper or lower slots? They need to be held in place with sealer while installing the powerhead and housing, any help would be appreciated.

The answer is to be found in Leeroy's Ramblings
" there are (2) 25 cent size rubber bushings between the exhaust tube and the exhaust housing, which are illustration #77 part #327030 — Silencing Pad. There are locations for 4 of these rubber pads, but only the top ones on each side are used on this motor."
