They should be on the namplate, which is on the side of the transom clamp. If the namplate is missing, you should be able to find it on the welsh plug on the side of the engine itself, nearby the head. The welsh plug is a quarter sized silver disc similair to a freeze plug with numbers stamped in it. <br />If it's a 3hp it should start with something like JW-xx or JH-xx.<br />Good luck!
