    Entire electrical system dies when under way

    The OP is correct on not seeing a circuit breaker or fuse in the engine schematic Since this is only the motor related schematic, the remaining switches/wiring on the boat side is not shown. depending on where the power for those items comes from, most likely tied in to the red or white wire...

    Where to look for water leak

    The OP ran the motor in muffs for 10 minutes and no leak. So it's not core plugs or leaking hoses. Since the exhaust bellows is bad, my guess is the shift bellows or U-joint bellows also is bad or the transom is bad, which would only leak in the water

    Entire electrical system dies when under way

    I would start at the battery and check every connection (both power and ground) all the way to the helm and every thing that receives electrons. a melted switch means that there was a really really really bad connection and the arcing of the connection caused enough heat to actually cause a fire.
