Be very careful not to place stress on the elbow or the exit tube during motor operation.
The intent of a boss is to thicken the metal to make for a more robust attachment point. Drilling straight into the water jacket may mean an eventual crack in it.
Great point. Yes, the jacket is thin there. I feel better that the elbow is plastic, and also protected by the lifting eye. I had to mount the eye facing the other way (not shown in the photos above), but it protects the elbow a bit having it on there.
