Pre Alpha what goes here ?

[Gulfstreamer]

I`m learning as I go here on my 1st water pump job here(yep a rookie). And I noticed there is something missing like a seal or washer for the rather large round area just above prop in pic, There is an allen head bolt in the hole when I took bottom section off. I hope picture help`s out.

Ayuh,.... There's supposed to be a anode mounted there, or a Trim tab made of zinc....

I just got the boat and she`s a fixer upper. I cant imagine that just fell off, although the threads on the bolt end are torn up. I will have to hunt for a pic of what it looks like and get one. Thanks for the super fast response.

Thanks I found it, saw there were 2 different styles just to throw me off. I`m fresh water so mag. or aluminum will do just not sure about tab style. I have a paranha prop whether that is good or not I have no idea.
