Hi I am new to owning a boat and other then operating them I have no real knowledge of outboards..So this may sound stupid to some of you so bare with me,,I started up my motor today and filled a big tub with water and filled it to the lower case line just above the water intake,,When running I noticed that water was coming out of a hole right at the lower case line it is a square hole and it looks like it is suposed to be but I dont know.. The water was coming out of the line at the top of the motor wear I know it should be as well..The square hole is facing the boat..is water supposed to be coming from there? Thanks for the help and sorry if this is a stupid question..
