    and then again   in  E.wawrzynialak “CHEAP OUTBOARDS”  if the leak  does not seems ” to bad”  one can simply  flush and refill with  new cheap GC oil….

    but if your  are going to become addicted to oldies  … practice makes perfect,

    the shift rod o-ring is tricky but easy to do  (check utubes)  on tapping and extracting that brass plug above the oring.

    I remember Frank Robb talking about the bushing above the shift shaft O-ring. His comment was on re-assembly…”Don’t pound the daylights out of it!!”  I still smile when I replace one.
