Look on the face of the switch, where the key goes in, and see if there is a number stamped on it, take the number and check with your local marine dealer and see if they can order you a key.

Any good OMC dealer will have a rack of keys, do what I did, remove the ignition switch and take it in, I think we went through 8 keys before we found one that worked.
