Advice on Penta 270 Outdrive

[Cgloyd]

Looking for some advice on parts/seals that I should replace. I have oil from the outdrive leaking into my bilge, and water in the outdrive oil. working on pulling the outdrive tomorrow afternoon, but the pin that holds the helmet in place does not have the extra 2 holes for pump/jack screws. I only have to two holes for the bolts that hold it in.

Any recommendations/part numbers would be helpful. I have researched some parts, but the listings often specify the engine size as AQ200 or higher. I have an AQ125. I don't want to purchase parts twice if anyone knows if things like the bellows are actually the same size between the different engines.

Also any recommendations on how to remove the pin in the steering helmet would be appreciated, I would like to avoid damaging it.

Think gaitors are a same on all 270.
While its off, water is leaking into boat ?, pull the steering fork out, little "O " ring seal costing pennies keeps the water out.
Lots easier to separate helmet and fork .
Smother with grease on re assembly
