Note: A Bravo 3 lower is the same on a Standard B3 all the way to B3 X and XR. The upper housing is the only difference.
Parts I listed are the correct ones.
While even Mercruiser Parts list both seals (37 and 42) and item 37 as NLA if it's selected it shows 45 pieces in stock. My assumption...
New seals
1 each Small inner seal 26-8M0033407 (replaces 2 each lip seals)
1 each Large outer seal 26-861694 (replaces 2 each lip seals)

Does look like the G7B and if correct look for rebuild kit
If pump needs complete rebuild with bearings I found this one
Rebuild
Don't know how much if any.
