    Not as weird as you think. OMC changed to the primer system on a ton of motors about that time. Including on my 35hp (electric start). And no, there is nothing in front of the carburetor either. The hose you are speaking of is the crankcase drain hose. Goes to the upper bypass cover to inject the drainage into the upper cylinder for burning. Not sure what the deal is with yours.
