Volvo Penta SX/Cobra pivot housing Seal?

[mtaboat]

Is their a seal (other then the water pump) that goes between the pivot housing and the transmission on a Volvo SX drive?

Nope.... All you need to install the drive unit is the inlet water O-ring which is number 29, http://www.volvopentastore.com/Uppe...*****.853195591--store_id.366--view_id.782024 .. Or item 18 in this view,http://www.volvopentastore.com/Gimb...on_id.853195591--store_id.366--view_id.783173

And the two O-rings for the input shaft item number 9,http://www.volvopentastore.com/Bear...*****.853195591--store_id.366--view_id.782027

Had you had an Volvo SX-A drive system then your O-ring would have looked like item number 8 covering the exhaust as well, http://www.volvopentastore.com/Gimb...on_id.853195591--store_id.366--view_id.775538

To help find/ensure the correct parts catalog for your drive, post the drive serial number, product number or full SX model number if you know it. How to identify your engine or drive

Post number 6 inside bajaunderground's link talks a little bit about where the drive shaft housing rests up against the U-joint bellows sealing out the water.

Being a Cobra/SX drive model, the product number tends to work better than using the serial number when looking things up under Volvo for better identification. Your drive is showing the drive to be an SX-M with a gear ratio of SX-M 1.60. < While that link will basically show only the upper and lower drive unit parts, Here's your complete list of parts such as the bell housing parts, etc, etc. once you click on Transmissions, http://www.volvopentastore.com/Marin...view_id.765160
