Default 500 EFI MERC Drive Lube Tank Bracket

Question for you Experts on here....

Noticed my Drive Oil tank that is mounted on the top left of my 500EFI just above the Fuel Filter has a crack in the bracket.

Does anyone have the part number for the bracket handy? It looks like it mounts on two bolts and has the rubber strap to hold the small plastic fill tank.

Many thanks in advance--!

Hey Randy, I got a couple of the brackets as spares, need to be cleaned and painted, but otherwise in good shape, want one?

Glad you got it Randy. All the ones I had were kinda rusty so I picked the best, they clean up easy though. Glad I could help you out, take care of that boat. I still feel kind of attached to it even though it doesn't sit behind my garage anymore.

She is in good hands here in Texas now! I feel like it is a 65' Corvette , classic and nothing else like it! I may do a repaint and refurb in the future--I am going to go with a Dark Grey instead of white on the top deck.

Thanks again!
