snow has prevented me from getting a pic, it should all be melted tomorrow or tuesday and ill get that. I have made some progress in finding a replacement.
here is the link to the replacement dipstick (the thing i have mangled in my current motor) http://mercuryperformance.com/89499-...ck-p-7879.html Here is the closest thing i can find to the motor that is on the boat. Im sure it will function correctly but Im not so sure the mounting bracket i have will work on this motor. Even if it wont i can figure out a way to mount it to the boat so i will pull the motor and start messing with it more. Id much rather buy a 15 dollar plug than a 200 dollar motor. https://www.dbelectrical.com/product...5-92459a4.html

Is your engine an inline 6 outboard? Also know as a tower of power?

Well Phat and Destroyer were correct. One screw to pull the bowl off which gave easy access to the dipstick. Took a whole 30 seconds to get apart, wish I would have payed attention and thought simple way earlier in this process.
The dipstick wouldn't budge turning it from the inside either. It broke off before it started to turn out. But I was able to easily drill it out from the inside. Now I just need to clean the threads up a bit and order a new dipstick. Thanks for the help guys

James - PM me if you want a set of new hoses for that motor/pump. I think I have some kicking around the garage that are essentially brand new. There are all yours if you want them.
