Only because I remember your Previous Post that you have a 350 Chevy with a Volvo Penta 280 outdrive. Volvo has NEVER had a raw water pump in an outdrive. You have an engine driven raw water pump, not to be confused with the engine circulation pump (aka water pump in car lingo) depending on your full model number, it could be belt driven or a pump mounted on the vibration dampner.
I would strongly suggest you get the full model number off your engine and get the OEM service manuals. At least download an owners manual from the link below.
