You could just take the fitting out and plug it. get rid of crimped hose and clean the area up. And thank you for the paint program, ive been playing with it. I always wanted to know how that was done.
Thanks Wilbur

Do you have a water pressure guage? If so its disconnected. If not....then you can do away with that hose.....take the elbow out and screw a plug in in its place. That is not the speedometer hose I don't think as the ones I have seen are internal inside the leg of the engine. It looks like the water pressure line to me.
dont have a water pressure gauge on the boat GQuote:

Are you doubting me G?
I will leave it alone, ifn it aint broke, dont fool with it :) just wasnt sure what it was :)
That motor might have been on another boat at one time.
Im sure it was ,seeing he doesnt have a speedo.
