Soft deck plates, thats the gas tank cover, many many are soft!! Remove the whole panale and take all wood of, they will be small squares, you will replace with one sheet ply.
Transom is factory cut and you must have a 20" shaft motor. Might want to remove motor and take the Alum cap off and ck wood, if all is well, (sorry but I bet there if damage) then glass over sand and paint and seal forever, it the beast way. The floor is by far the worst fix, but cut it out till you ind good wood and start adding new ply. Save the skin of the floor so you just reglass it to the new wood.

That is the same transom that I have, it is factory and the cap on it is fiberglass. When I swapped engines I tried to take mine off but I think they used resin to put it on.....anyway, my transom was fine, I just sealed up the seams around it with 5200 (man I hate that stuff) and stuck on the new motor.
One thing I did have to do was grind a little on the cap where the steering arm is cause it was rubbing. I just put a little paint on it to keep it from sucking water in.

With every engine manufacturer there will be subtile or gross differences in powerheads of the same horsepower, given the year models.
The possibility exists that the foot may be interchangable more readily than the powerhead. Each one is not running, you should be able to find one that runs for $1500.

Looking to see what years might be interchangable, found one with your same problem.
