Valve cover gasket?

[urutony23]

Hello everybody

Can anyone help me out with the part number for a Mercruiser 165 inline 6?

I got the boat to start thanks to DonS's help!!

But it's leaking like a motha from the front side of the valve cover.

I'm getting there though. Thanks guys

TY doctur, but the one I found is for the 224 CID engine. I know I have the 3.7 250cid, and I haven't had much luck. Sorry to bother again.

Nope,... You Don't,.. No such motor...
You're confusing the 165hp, 3.7l, 4 cylinder with Your 165hp, 4.1l, 6 cylinder motor...

If thats the case (165hp,inline 4, FWC) then use Ford 460 cu.in V8 motor for valve cover gaskets.
