Sea core is just a different coating on the drive for harsh salt water environments. On the transom assemblies a few parts are replaced with stainless steel. At least this is what I was told

The top cap on the Seacore does not appear to be finned like an XR, but the propshaft does look like the correct size for an XR.

Yes, same drive, different coating. To be honest why don't they just put that fancy coating on all their drives?
