My best interpretation is; pulled the lower drive to check pump etc. found water in the pump cavity wants to know if this is a concern, If so, it is normal. |

Is it a VP drive or Mercruiser ? If Merc, is it a Alpha, Bravo, I, II, or III? What year? Not trying to be a smart ash, but basic info is needed for any of us here to give advice.

I take it you found milky fluid (or actual water) when draining the drive oil? Or did you just see it on the dipstick? |

Sounds like a input shaft seal. It can be a DIY project. Search the forums here for many, many threads on how to do it. |
