"Engine: Mercruiser 5.7 & Alpha 1 Sterndrive.

Just wondering if anyone can help me here. We recently moored our boat for a week to have repairs done to the brakes on the trailer. We went to check the boat less than 24 hours later to find a hell of alot of water in the engine bay. So we had the trailer repairs sorted and got the boat back on dry land and at that stage we didnt know where the leak was coming from. We filled the boat engine bay area up this evening to find the water coming in through the top of the gimble and/or steering unit. My question is, does anyone know how/where to repair this fault. Any help would be much appreciated!
