    Oh no. Usually we like pictures on this site, but not that one. Sorry to see it!
    Where are you located? That might make it easier for someone to help out and or find a place near you.

        I used these guys for my last engine. It was on a stern drive, but I am not sure it would make a lot of difference. http://www.michiganmotorz.com

          What year is it? I wonder who made the motor for Tigé that year. Someone will know.
          I think I would want to get a new crate motor from the engine manufacturer.

          Don't worry, someone smarter than me will be along with better information.

            That is a Marine Power 5.7 engine. Could be a cracked block, cracked heads or a blown head casket. You could a long block from Marine Power or a reman from Jasper Engines. You will transfer all the extras to the new engine.

                      from where its coming from it could be a number of things but my first suspect would be the head gaskets or heads. i would need a better picture to figure out where its coming from

                        I would suspect the bock to crack due to freeing, long before a head or gasket. Overheating, nother story.

                            water sits on top of oil and the water will raise the level of the oil. it will then purge out
