Ellis – glad to help.   You may find the prop shaft seal has been leaking allowing the gearcase grease to get into the pump rotor chamber and gumming up the works with grease or swelling up the rubber rotor to where it won’t pump water.   Here’s some pics from my ’57 Sea King project showing the pump rotor as found and the rebuild with a new rotor, cam and drive pin.    If you should need a new drive pin for the cam, the part number for that is #550672.
