"I changed the oil in my boat

"I changed the oil in my boat motor (HT6354)the other day and took it for a run when the alarm bell went off. I'd lost all the oil in the sump. Ive checked the motor over, a bit difficult, and couldn't find what may have happened, anyone got any ideas. This motor has a manual pump connected to the sump with two takeoff points (I think) the pump has two takeoff points also but when I looked underneath there is a 'T' peice that has a pipe coming from it to the pump but the other hasn't anything. Should another hose be connected here."
 
"Garry, I had this 5 years ago

"Garry, I had this 5 years ago. HT6354's have 2 oil pumps. In my case the transfer pump known as a scavenge pump had broken. Almost impossible to get parts and has taken almost 5 years to source. Am changing engines as a result. Engine now repaired so will have a handed pair for sale soon!!"
