No cooling?

I was testing my outboard motor 1983 25 hp 2 stroke evinrude, I saw water coming from 2 holes, I thought, ok that's fine that's where it's cooling, but then I saw another video where the water was coming out of those 2 holes and where water usually comes from, under the housing, I checked mine and saw mine had a little waterjet (Or so I thought, I found out it was a "Nipple, lower motor cover"), but now I'm still unsure if those 2 holes are actually the ones used for cooling and not that my impeller is bad.

(Could not attach file so I uploaded it, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dkqroRT-4LA)

(Link to video im reffering to where I saw water coming out of a 'jet', at around 1:15 you see him filming it, one consistent jet, and then little to the right of it you see water keep getting spit out, I only have that.)

Got it fixed, apparantly that nipple was to hold the cooling tube it was stuffed, I put a cord thru it and now water comes out as it should in a nice stream!
Altho I did notice alot of smoke, I know 2 strokes smoke alot but I looked quite excessive.
