I do see that the MerCruiser Black engine has white cam cover lettering. It also has the Mercruiser logo on the plenum. I will have to learn how to post pics here, post Photobucket era...then I could post my pic.


The engine noted by the OP on Ebay is the "show engine" then, not the actual working unit.
If this is the display engine it would have no internals and therefore not run. Funny the seller doesn't mention this. Wouldn't a buyer be surprised to discover no pistons or crank! But the seller does not take returns...Good luck!--Bob
