Its me again... 1963 70 HP Merc. There is a hole on the left side, if your facing the motor,on the lower unit. After I started her up for the first time yesterday I noticed, after I took it out of the trash can that I had filled with water, that it was leaking a water/oil mix onto the driveway. Note that I now own ear muffs for my outboard.. Is this from sitting around all winter and spring. I am hoping that when I take it out this week and run it around this will clear up.
