i am taking my old 1983 140 omc apart to reseal the exhaust to powerhead as it was leaking oil. and i decided to repaint it while i had it halfway apart. the midsection had some chunks of aluminum taken out of it so i am using the mid from a 1989 175 xp which matches up to the 140 exhaust housing. i need to know what upper motor mount(the one that the steering bracket bolts to) i can use cause the original one is toast. the metal housing split. the original part # is 0387797 i'm wondering if part # 387098 will work cause the pictures look identical. if not what part# supersede the original. the later ones look like they'll work also it just looks like the made the rubber part and the mounting plate two seperate peaces instead of one unit. is the correct and will the later style also work?
