Hey guys I'm a little curious about something. The OMC Manual as well as the parts supply catalog specifically state that the belhousing cover requires 7 screws.
One can see in the diagram that their are 8 holes in both the cover and the gasket. If I only need 7 of the screws then what fills the other hole and which hole is it? Is there something else that bolts to the belhousing? ...am wondering if maybe a ground wire or something gets attached or if there should be a stud or something in one of the spots that I need to intall.
I could just button it all up with 8 screws but would really like to know if I am missing something.
-just for clarification it is a '93 OMC 454 -now 502 King Cobra
Thanks,
Jay
