I have had the same problem with some of my motors including my 1957 35hp Evinrude and I fixed it by using a piece of number 8 fencing wire as used on the farm.
I cut a piece just long enough to do the job and filed a chisel tip on it and put in my electric drill.
I poured a small bit of water in and just kept prodding gentle at the blockage until t broke loose.
