    I can’t find any photos but I messed up once drilling the crud out and the drill wandered off into the gearcase. It left an opening about a half inch long inside the gear cavity. With no replacement on hand, I finished clearing out the crud to clear the drain passage and then slipped a short piece of brass tubing down to fill in the gash and then covered it with Marine Tex epoxy to seal it. It worked and is still working to this day I think. The only problem is I can’t remember which motor I did this to.
