water pump hose

[rubaggd]

how can i change the water pump hose from the outdrive that connects to the back of the boat above the exhaust bellows? can this be done without taking the outdrive off? i may have confused yall but im new with this boat lingo stuff. the hose has a hole in the bottom of it. i can get to one of the hose clamps at the outdrive but where it connects above the exhaust up in the top it looks very hard to get too without dropping the outdrive
