That little tube is the crankcase puddle drain. There will be a bit of fuel dripping of of there but no water.

Water should haphazardly blow out of the exhaust relief slot about half way down the backside, in droplets. Most of it goes out the underwater exhaust outlet.

You did a pretty good job of tracing the water path. You did run some water through it, I imagine.

From where I sit, the pump looks surprisingly well.

So…I really don’t know where the trouble lies.

Gale warned not to remove the side covers from the powerhead, because they are very difficult to reseal. And they were right.
