Water in midsection exhaust 1981 j75TRLCIM

I have emulsified oil in the lower midsection, noticed it today when I took the lower unit down. Also saw water coming through the prop hub. Never saw that before. Something else unusual was water coming out near the lower motor mounts.

Lots of water comes out the prop, totally normal.

Water is supposed to come out those big drain holes near the lower mounts also. If it didn't, it would rise up and cause very serious damage to the powerhead.

And water cools the exhaust chamber in the midsection.
