I have a 1986 mariner 30hp. There seems to be some type of small cover plate (about 1.5" in length) missing from the bottom of the lower end of the motor. It is right above the base of the propeller. Does anyone know what it might be? Directly above the propeller there is a round adjustable plate. Directly in front of that and in front of the gear case is another plate. That is the plate that is missing.
