Hello- I have a Mercruiser 260 V8 5.7L 350, 1987 SN 0B652010. I noticed my bilge pump kicking off every 15 min or so, kicking out bilge water, and I noticed a stream of water coming in where it appears the "Y" shape manifold exhaust pipes meet near the transom of the boat, underneath the drive shaft. The leak is only coming in on the starboard side, around where the manifold exhaust pipes meet. What are your thoughts as to what is causing the leak? Not very clear pics, but I made my feeble attempt on Paint to show "A" where the leaking on the starboard side. Ignore the pine needle in the pic, I couldn't remove it with my fingers.
