No need to be confused guys as everything you need to know is on page 56 of your OMC Model Number Reference Guide. Here’s a link to the 1913 – 1979 edition at Marine Engine and if you don’t have a copy, you can download my PDF version of the 1913 – 2005 edition. ☺
OK, still confused….According to what I found on marineengine.com, the model number for a 65 9.5hp is: 9522…

I looked at all of the Evinrude 9.5 model numbers, all started with the number 9, not 10. Needless to say, this is not the official OMC model number guide, but seems correct…
Perhaps Canadian built engines had slightly different model numbers….
Where did you find the page saying the model number is: 10522? Your link just leads to the title page of the marineengine model number guide….
OK, finally found it!! Looked a little farther ahead in that page and found 10522, a 1965 9.5hp…. I wonder why there are two different hp designators for the 9.5, perhaps this is a Canadian built engine….
