flush attachment for a pre 80s lower unit

[YN2(SS)]

Where can I find one? I have the flush hole, and want to put a flush attachment on it for flushing.

That is, as they say, a good question. The outboard is a 1980 mercury 70. Ser 5651730. The lower unit is long shaft that bolts on well, and has the correct ration of 1.64:1. But it does not have the speedo pitot tube hole that the fitting would screw into (there is a cavity there) and it has a flush plug (which the 80 didnt). The most accurate advice I believe Ive been given so far is that it is a pre 80s unit. Thanks!

The flush plugs were on the early 70' Mercs. Why not use a standard earmuff type flusher?
