Great little motors. I’d change the impeller and check the oil in the gearcase for water intrusion. If there’s water, I’d pressure test the gearcase and see if the propshaft seal is leaking. There are only 2 oil seals on that simple gearcase, and the only reason to pull the head off the gearcase is if the propshaft seal is leaking. The gearhead easily pulls out after removing 2 (or4) screws. Oh, yeah, the crush washers on the drain and vent plugs could be missing or bad.
