Can a non-winterized 5.7 Bravo 3 have damage to the outdrive also?

Going to look at a 2001 crown line with a cracked block tomorrow do to not being winterized. I can handle the engine part but I'm not sure what to expect as far as damage to the outdrive itself and exhaust manifolds. Any experienced input would be appreciated thanks Jeff.

The drive self drains, should not be any issues
Same with the Y pipe, no issues

Do pull the drain plug to see if there was any water, no need to let much at all out. If there was water in the drive it will show

if the motor suffered an improper winterization, so did the exhaust manifolds.

Thanks for the responses, The rest of the boat was in poor shape so I passed on it. At least I'll know what to expect now as I keep searching.

Smart move. Get something you can go boating with.
