    are there any water passages to block or be concerned about under the  exhaust plate  ?   I know some larger engines have  exhaust cover cooling but  seems theese little 3 hp just get hot .?

    Yes, there is one small water passage closest to the crankshaft, it runs vertically from the bottom of the cover to the top of the cover.   The rest of the exhaust cover is not water cooled, and definitely gets hot…
