i am trying to remove the block from the motor. i removed the six bolts under the block on the exterior of the motor housing and the nuts that have the rubber bushings on the inside of the motor cover. i cant see any other bolts or nuts on the inside or outside of the motor, except the two screws on each side of the shaft where i removed the six screws. how do i get the block off the motor body?

There should be bolts / screws going up through the bottom in to the block/power head.

There's probably at least one, in front, that's real hard to get to because of the transom mount and engine swivel.
