I just bought a used 2018 tracker heritage with a 40hp 4 stroke Mercury. I was running it with the ear muffs to warm up the oil before I change it and I notice behind the fuel pump. (Blue dot recall replacement) there was water squirting forward. It’s to the right of the starter and behind the fuel pump. I was wondering if when the recall replacement of the fuel pump was performed if there was some damage done to the block. Would there be any warranty considerations for this . I just bought the boat and it’s going to cost me money!!!! I have a video of the leak . Can someone take a look and tell me what you think ? Thanks folks. Dan at 8608056337IMG_3603.jpeg

Don't know the motor but guessing it's not the block, there is probably either a gasket or a hose with a small hole/leak.

Most likely was done when the Bluetooth was replaced
