Bought a raw water pump kit, but....
I'm thinking there's something missing.
On the Alpha drive water pump is there supposed to be a seal between the metal insert and the top of the plastic pump housing?
There's a small bore above the insert and it looks like a seal should be pressed into that space.
The manual doesn't show one, the parts breakdown from Merc doesn't show one either.
All I can find is a rubber slinger and the shaft O-ring seal which goes above the slinger.
Somebody please ease my troubled mind.
