It's a pre alpha 120 drive.

You've got the serial number - that's what you need to get the right parts.

No such listing in any parts manual for anything known as a "Pre Alpha" . That is just a name wrongly stuck on a group of outdrives by DIYers.

They are called MC-1 drives. The 120 on the decal indicates what engine was attached to the outdrive.
Here is a ID and History file that explains it completely.

As a DIYer, I stand corrected...

In any case, that serial number will get you the parts you need.

Good luck.
