Using a scope I initially seen water coming in under the bottom transom bracket but after taking it home and getting better access I believe the issue is the related to the exhaust. I’ll post a couple videos of what I see. I took the outdrive off and the exhaust manifold so I could get better access. The video is with the boat at home and a water hose stuck inside the exhaust bellow on the outside.

This is not my first boat rodeo but it is my first with a Volvo Penta. None of the links I have found work for the service manuals and I have also tried the VP website. Does anyone have an adult link they can share or email me?

This video is the first video I took with the boat in the lake. You can see it looks like it’s coming from behind the transom plate but after some research I am pretty sure that is a v-bracket and with the second video post above, I’m pretty confident it’s coming from the exhaust.

Your manual is available from the Volvo Penta site. You may need your serial numbers

I found the manuals I needed. Wish I was more confident that the leak was coming from the exhaust pipe before pulling the motor.
