water from outdrive

[Stings]

i have a pre alpha out drive with a merc 140. i had the muffs on today and noticed water coming from the shifter. where the lower unit and upper unit meet. it looks like its coming from the upper unit. any ideas where it might be from?

OK after a closer look its actually coming from the lower part of the drive thru the L shaped brass thing that switches it from forward and reverse
