I use to fill oil after each trip, why would you wait for the light??

that doesn't look to bad, but it will need honing, piston,rings, berrin. they also may be able to resleve it?? Nothing will be cheap, and might be able to find good used motor for less.
look for same year omc and you keep this one and have all the parts you will ever need

yur repair cost and the decision to repair that engine will be based on the condition of the crank, if the crank is bad, its not going to be cost effective to repair that engine

easy repair that isn't bad at all. i've fix several that were much worst with honing and new piston and rings. New piston and rings set avail for your motor from Tri State Marine for $89.75
