Sorry for late reply , it's where the leg drops I think, I had'nt noticed it before the tell tale pipe is working grand and the water coming out is warm. I will attach more pics maybe it will be clearer

Are you sure it's not coming from the vents above the anticavitation plate? The outboard should be deeper in the water.
