Bravo 3 runout

[FishStretcher]

I pilot a desk chair and computer at work. I am not a marine mechanic, nor do I get paid to work on pleasure craft. I can wrench pretty well for a weekend warrior, but I need to know what I am looking at. So I don't know much about I/Os. Everything I know about this so far is from what I have asked the marine mechanics at work. So if I say something wrong, it's probably me, not the source of the info.

I showed pics of the outdrive to one of the mechanics, and he said he has seen lots worse. It will be a little gamble, I think.

I think I have to pull the engine anyway for other reasons, so while I am in there I can address these issues.
