I would shoot a temp gun at the oil pan, oil filter and the sender compare that then compare against the other engine doing the same.. This would be the easiest and first place to start as others mentioned.

direct from the 500EFI merc manual

Oil temp at 5200RPM=170-180*. (Full throttle)

I dont know how mercury racing got away with those temperatures. On oso, you need 250* oil temps or your engine will get milkshaked, not lubricate properly, and destroy itself. You need to get high oil temps to burn off the water coming in from your poor choice of camshaft selection thats reverting.

I'd stick your wound in a can of carb clean. You won't worry about the bleeding part of your wound anymore.

Remember, they measure temp after the oil cooler...not at the pan or before the cooler.
