my 1976 merc 7.5 has an oil leak coming from behind the prop as stated, what is required to replace the seal? I'm very mechanically inclined but haven't worked on many outboards. instructions or any tricks, things to lookout for or advise would be much appreciated. Thanks, ~Aaron

Try looking up your serial# on this link and you will see an exploded view of your engine.

Probably under 'GEAR HOUSING (PROPELLER SHAFT)'.
