    What would this leak be?!

    I had some water in my lower unit of my 1997 Johnson Venom 200 J200STLEUB. I removed the lower unit and pressure tested and no bubbles come out of the usual suspected areas around the driveshaft, prop shaft, or shift shaft. But air is escaping through the 4 holes of the water pickup. I can hear it rushing out pretty clearly. Any suggestion on what my leak might be that letting water in and air escape through there? I cross posted this on the evinrude page too. Thanks

    Scratch that, once I removed the water pump housing it was in fact the driveshaft seal leaking out. The water pump housing just had the air trapped and coming out the intake. Thanks
