Is there a water impeller (circulator) in the drive??
Yes. Bottom of the upper gear case is the impeller. You can replace 'em without removing the drive ... but I think it's a LOT easier to do with the drive off the boat.

That's a big help, thanks thanks thanks, I figured they all did somewhere but a confirmation is always best, have to order one when I get the gasket kit for the drive...

Hoping that rear hole on engine is just an Inspection Place for ..... Hoping to be in the water here in 4 weeks for some testing b4 it freezes here in Indiana with these morning Temps we've been having...lol

Yeah, I'm not sure what that hole is ... looks like something should be sittin' there, but I can't figure what it would be.

Your steering cable looks like a tru-course. I don't know much about 'em (never really seen one up close). Great steering system if ya' can fix it up.
