      I am looking for a water pump kit and parts number for a 1960 3hp Sea King/Buccaneer.  I am having trouble finding the part.  Any help would be appreciated!

          I believe that motor uses the wobbler rotor style water pump – part numbers are:

          Wobbler rotor is OMC #550683

          gasket for the gearcase housing is 550681

          the eccentric cam for the rotor is 550671

          the propshaft seal is 550684

          I rebuilt a ’57 Sea King 3hp a couple years ago and those are the part numbers I used for that job.   I also have a parts list for a ’62 Sea King 3hp and they have the same part numbers so I’m sure yours would be the same.   I found all these parts readily available on Ebay.   Hope this helps.

            Bob, thank you!  exactly what I was looking for. My childhood motor was a 1960 3hp gale buccaneer that my uncle won in a fishing rodeo.  I fell in love with boating with that thing.  I have been looking for one for years but never had the time or effort to search or knowledge to refurb one.  In December I found a 1960 3hp Sea King (had just recently learned they were the same motors with different stickers and colors) online that was in mint condition that an art collect had in MN.  I purchased and had it shipped to AL and it is in better shape than I could have imagined.   Fired right up but not pumping water so here I am looking for water pump kit.   Thanks again for the help and yes, my first big score from joining AOMCI!!!!!
