1957 Sea King 25 hp. Same powerhead as earleir Johnson Evinrude 25/30hp???

Hi,

I just acquired a 1957 Montgomery Ward Sea King 25 that I am going to attempt to rebuild and bring back to life. I'd like to order some gaskets but I'd like to know for sure I'm going the right route. I know that John./Evin. made a 25 from '52-'55 and a 30 in '56, but things changed in '57. This is why I'm a bit confused. My Sea King is a 57 but it's a 25. I'm pretty sure its the same power head as the '52-'55 25's but I want to be sure. Hoping someone has some info for me. (I looked up pics of a Johnson Sea Horse 25 and it looks nearly identical so I'm thinking I'm on the right track.

Thanks!
