I have an '89 Marlin Cobra with Mercruise 260 HP and Alpha One drive. Before the season starts I need to replace my lower shift cable, water pump impeller and all bellows. Looking online at parts I see some kits with all the bellows parts but most are for Gen II drives, others say for particular serial numbers.
I just went looking for the serial number on the outdrive and found a serial number on the gimbal housing, but it was painted over. Cleaned it up and took some of the paint off but can't quite make it out. Is the serial number stamped anywhere else besides that plate at the top of the gimbal housing? Any other way to tell if I have a Gen 1 or 2 drive or what parts I need? Thanks!
