Sounds like the pee hole but it's supposed to go out the back. Do you have a pee hole in addition to that hose spurting water? Is this a new happening? Did you just get the engine?

sounds like a pressure tube for a speedometer. it runs from the Pitot fitting on the transom, and plugs into the back of the speedometer. if no speedo. remove tube on transom.

rethought. sounds like a water pressure gauge hose.
