water coing out top of leg

[ralasa]

Hi all first post here, great site.
I have a 2001 Yamaha 9.9 4stroke high thrust extra long leg
motor runs an goes fine, when running it water comes out from the top of the leg up near the drive shaft,
I have had it all apart , everything seems fine , there was a couple of blockages , which i cleared the exhaust pipe was rusted through in this section as well .
made a new one of those , all the videos i have watched none do it , heres a video of what happens

Can you see any water coming out around the thermostat area? Could be the gasket or the hoses/connections there?

Hi there , no leaks from thermostat, i have taken the power head off, new gaskets ,all pipes checked , all the gaskets are good , there is no leaks or water in the engine
cowling area, I have just bought this motor , 2nd hand so i don't know if it was always like this , might pull it down again , may have missed something ., thx for the reply

Only thing I can think of left is you have a crack somewhere.

I just started the motor again , where does the water exit the motor ,throught the exhaust?
