Volvo Penta ms2

[Margarine tub]

Hello. I have a Penta ms2 that has got a lot of corrosion around the coolant output. Looks like the o ring went ages ago and corroded all around the pipe. Coolant pipe was also completely blocked. Gessing the coolant pipe has an internal leak also. I need to replace ideally if not repair the bearing housing and internal coolant pipe. The pipe is not an issue I can find that part. The bearing housing I cant find and am unsure of the best way to remove it. Has anyone got any advise/spare parts or whole unit?

The bearing housing is no longer available as a new part.

It is removed, after removing 6 bolts, complete with cooler and output shaft ( keep the shims)

I thought as much in terms of availability. I removed the six bolts. Should it just lift off after that?

ITYWF the manual ( read it) suggests tapping it with a soft faced mallet.

Probably after all this time it will need a "bit of persuasion"

Yeah will give it another go. Bit scared of the aluminium. Thanks for your help ?

If anyone knows of a spares place that might have the bearing housing I would be very interested
