I have a question about the attached pictures. First I serviced the aftercools per Seaboard recommended procedure. I was in the process of servicing them again and noticed the pitting between the o-ring and end cap in the attached picture. That is my starboard engine. Every thing else looks great, housing and core. What could cause this? Is it safe to put back in boat since it is outside of the 0-ring? I change zincs regularly. The second attached picture is my port engine. It also has a little pitting, but not as much, but the big issue is something messed up the tube ends. On this one the housing and rest of core is in real good shape also. I am thinking maybe part of a zinc broke off and rattled around. A friend down the dock had the same thing happen to him. Can that be repaired, there is a little restriction. Should I just get new cores? The engines are 7 year old factory recons with 1100 hrs and this is the 3rd aftercooler service I performed.
Thanks Dave
