water at bottom of powerhead

[Indymike]

I have water where it doesn't belong.Is this a gasket prob or what ? No symptoms that caused me to look , just trying to get a feel for this thing.Hooked up the muffs and started the motor and noticed water where it wasn't before. Water is a steady but not forceful stream. Does not run hot.<br /><br />Thanks for looking.<br />Mike<br /><br /><br />

Nice picture.<br /><br />The water is coming from one of three places.<br /><br />1. The hose on that side.<br /><br />2. The plate (exhaust cover) and/or bolt.<br /><br />3. The powerhead to exhaust tower gasket.<br /><br />1 & 2 are easy. # 3 will require powerhead removal.
