Hi Folks--
A rubber line, maybe 1/2"--3/4" running to the exhaust mani,a bout midway, has a slight leak, but not sure what type fluid is leaking. I can't trace the origin of the line, though it seems to lead away from the engine completely? Is this a sewater cooling line of some sort? It does not seem to interface with the seawater pump, though I'm not certain about that... I know seawater enters the exhaust system at some pt, though this line seems too small? Also thought seawater would enter fruther downstream, rather than directly into mani, esp. as no zincs in exhaust mani as there are in oil cooler and heat exchanger? Also wondering if the mani is partitioned in some way so that sewater wouldn't s get into exhaust ports and so on? Or maybe I have this all wrong...
