"Jury rig up a garden hose to fit the water-tube and turn it on.

With the lower unit still off the motor you should get a strong flow of water down the leg if all is clear.

If you threw in a whole waterpump kit you should have a left over (rubber that was replaced) water tube guide that fit's into the cover. If you do hang onto that, it's great for making up a little rig. It will mount into a 99 cent garden hose repair end which can be connected to a garden hose.
