Evinrude oceanpro midsection problem.

 Hi lads,

After recent fishing trip, when I wash down the boat, I found some crack kind of like a knock from inside ( as the photo ). I got no idea what had happen there. Can anyone let me know what causes that? Would that affect the function of the outboard?

Thanks in advance. Cheers

Ken

It houses one of the lower mounting rubbers. Pull the cover and replace the mount and cover.

Why your at it I'd be replacing the anodes as well - they look like their pretty low/eaten, could prevent future corrosion issues
