        I just finished the Evinrude version of that motor, same issue.  One of the mounting tab welds leaked after the motor was dropped on the tank.  I used the POR-15 system, it works very well.

          I used POR15 on a 1947 Sportsman with many pinholes and it worked well. To do the job right took many steps and was a little complicated but good results.
