What is this ?

In my new to me 1990 Carver/Californian MY with 3208 375hp I'm try to find and understand all the maintenance items. I'm now working down the shaft packings. I'm familiar with them and have redone the one's on my 1980 ski boat for 40 years. This looks like a completely different setup. Seems like it's some kind of cooling setup. Below are 3 pictures, complete system view, and then a close up on each end. What should I know about this kind of setup? . I've been watching the dripping in the little plastic pan. What is in the pan is after a run of 3 hours around 1100 rpm. I didn't monitor the temp but will the next time out.
