Ayuh,.... Ya, there's a Big ole O-ring that fits sorta into the housing, 'n compresses against the hull...
On the Outside of the hull....

Nothin' on the inside, 'cause it's sealed against the outside...

As for replacin' Stuff,...
Keep yer eyes open when pullin' the motor, 'n Look for wear or damage as ya go...

Sorry We missed ya 1st time through,...

If you're going to all that trouble, throw in a new shift cable...

Be sure to check the water inlet. You may want to change your trim limit senders, as the wiring can be a big pain to change. Then again, unless you have a trim gauge and use it, it does not really matter.
