I am supposing that all these use the same threaded screw and washer - to drain the gearcase.
Where O where is a source for these buggers?
And why are the part numbers different (probably just me)?
Are OEM's that superior (they are - or they arn't) ?

1956 Evinrude Big twin
1958 Johnson Ad 12
1973 Mercury 20hp
1998 Mercruiser Alpha 1

Thanks Guys.

Now that is a great question, I know they all look the same except the ones with a little magnet in them

All are the same----------And when a shop sells a $1 item they are loosing money and doing you a favour.----------Warehousing/ shipping .. of parts is very expensive.--That is why single bolts / washers are listed at $4 each !!!!!!!!!!!

You can get them locally, or you can get them here at iboats. There are different numbers because some use a flat gasket, some use an o-ring, some have a magnet, some don't, and I think there is even a kind that uses an Allen wrench. DO NOT remove the Phillips head screw!!!!!
