Welcome George! I am sure someone with more knowledge than me will answer your question. I split the cases on my mark55 to get those end caps off. I DON’T know if they will come off without doing that or not. Those four cylinder mercs can be good runners. They actually develop 40hp or a little more. You probably know that. It would be a good idea to split the cases and check for scored pistons and de-carbon the exhaust. Back in the days of crappy two cycle oil these old motors plugged up with carbon. Remember to use some heat on stuck bolts. A new set of rings will make it purr like a kitten!
