any info woil be most appreciated.

If you are chasing a manual
If you are chasing a manual try ebay, you may be able download electronic version. I am not familiar with the mariner, but you are either looking for a nut/bolt or grommet connection to disconnect the rod. Have a good look it should be there.

asnapper is right
the shaft is either connected via a pin that that can be slid out with
The weight supported or else a double ended bolt. either way when you see
Which it is it will take about 2 mins to release. easy as.

sorted out the impellor this morn. once i had alook at it in day light, there was a locking nut on the gearbox rod just had to loosen that, and undo the nut that holds the two rods together fairly simple, just got to put back together now

oops i have done something
oops
i have done something wrong, i have no reverse gear, neutral is half way between neutral and reverse and when i start it in neutral it is already underload in forward.
i didnt think you could start the motor while it is in gear but i can, so back to the drawing board, i think it is out of my league now, will have to get it looked at after xmas.

Watch
Watch the video link i posted. In one part he shows how to make sure you don't miss this part of the assembly. Its not the same motor, but they are usualy very simular.

Drop leg
Drop the leg off again, put box in neutral and controls in neutral then put it back together again.
