This page may help you if you can't get the serial number right now: Mercruiser Alpha 1, Mercruiser Alpha 1 3.0, Alpha Gen 1 Sterndrive, Alpha 2 Mercruiser Sterndrive | Performance Product Technologies Click to expand... according to the site they stopped Alpha ones in 1990 so being that I have a 1996 logically I should have a Gen II
