i shop marine::Nice gearcase and worth some nice coin!
The allison and bullet bass boat crowd would gobble that case up.
Very heavy duty and made to run cleaver or surfacing props without destroying the bearing carrier.
You are looking at a seal lip, i believe.
You really should consider replacing that seal while the powerhead is on the bench.
Its not that big of a deal.
Unbolt the cap screws.
Tap on cap to break the sealing bond and very carefully walk the cap off of the crank with two small screw drivers.
You do not have to loosen any block bolts to get the seal cap off.
Try not too deform or scratch the mating surfaces and stay away from the crankshaft machined surface that the seal rides on.
See if you have to buy a seal installation tool to set the seal at the right height; it may not be necessary, i just dont remember.
You can buy the whole end cap with a new seal installed but rather pricey.
