Could be pretty bad - cracked block from freeze damage. I would pop the transmission off and have a look. If there is no water in the oil and the engine is otherwise good then perhaps drain the engine and apply some job weld.

Large round part = bellhousing
Personally I would not use the boat till you find where the water is coming from. (saw the vid) If you starve the exhaust hose from water you will then burn a hole, then sink to the bottom. Not boating is never fun, but it's a whole lot better than sinking. |

That's a pretty decent leak. I agree that you need to find out what's causing it before using the boat. Here's a direct link.

your engine is a 351W, right?
If so, there are no water freeze plugs in the back of the engine If its a chevy, there are two. |

Are you sure? There are freeze plugs back there on a 302.

I just went out and looked at the 351W I have on the engine stand and it's the same as the first pic. That's a lot of water..... Need to pull the trans. |

My '79 Tique was leaking from the bellhousing. The 302 block was cracked on both sides, the left being worse, one poke with a screwdriver and the piece fell right out. I hope it turns out better then mine.
