Hi,

I've purchased the water pump replacement kit:

But I can figure out what the seal with the red arrow is for. The kit doesn't come with any instructions. I've taken apart the old pump and it didn't seem to have this seal, unless it was melted between the housing and impeller. Is that where it goes?

Thanks in advance.

P.S. The manual for my outboard is in the mail, so I'll stop chaffing you guys soon.
