I have this bell housing.. actually 2 of them but they are the same. I do know they are made by mercruiser, but i cannot find ANY info on them.. I am looking for oil coolers and gaskets for them.. I have coolers but are corroded pretty bad. This isnt my bell housing but mine is identical

The closest I see is a flywheel housing from a Mercruiser 390MIE (uses a GM 482 block), circa 1969-70. The housing number is -47554... But it's No Longer Available from Merc....

Good luck,

Chris.....
