    A quick check of a 50hp 1994 E50TLER shows #438398 15" shaft & #438399 20" shaft. Same shaft for a J50PLSS. Evinrude was only making DFI motors by then. Those engines may be carrying the 3 cylinder gearcase. (Much larger gearcase). Not sure what you are running into, but the driveshaft/crankshaft didn’t change on the basic 2 cylinder engine. Are you comparing a std. engine to a commercial model? The commercial engines had the 3 cylinder type bigger gearcase, but the crank would be the same.
