    Is it possible that the adjustment was incorrect where the cable goes into the tube to the lower unit? Maybe that bent rod just didn’t get pulled up far enough to put the motor in neutral. Now that you have the lower unit off, try raising the rod as far as you can and see if you get the neutral. Keep in mind that there may be enough friction to make it seem the motor is NOT in neutral, you’ll have to put some resistance to keep the prop from turning.
