Second Video.

Whats up with this water leak? Never touched this part of the engine, only the STBD Cyl. Head. Should I be concerned about this? (1990 Johnson GT200 VJ200SLESE)

From what I can tell it may be a power head gasket. But I could be wrong.

Is this something that requires immediate attention? The wife threatened to kill me if I spent any more money on this boat, but Ive heard that before and Im still alive... so far. :D

Yes. If it was my motor I'd fix it ASAP. It's looks like both water and exhaust are getting under the hood.
