that is a primer assembley,it basically shoots raw fuel into the eng ,it replaces the choke system.the piece you broke is replaceable. would need to either get a used one,0511807 is the part numberl,or get a whole used unit on ebay,or new for $16.00from an evinrude/johnson dealer,its held by 4 screws ,here is a lik to the BRP website ,hopefully it comes up OK.

I have this assembly on my motor as well with the shrader valve. This unit is what shoots fuel in when you push in the key, right? What is the shrader valve for? What is the red tab/lever for? Boy I need to buy a manual.

Red lever- it's to manual prime for rope starting, leave it where it is for normal use

Shrader valve is used for connecting OMC fogging oil with the fitting onto the shrader valve for winterizing.

The schrader valve is very helpful for fogging the engine for seasonal storage as well as for the annual de-carbon treatment.

A $2.00 OE injector hose part #0763644 fits most OEM aerosol products as well as SeaFoam's Deep Creep that is popular with some forum members.
