6CTA8.3 part identification

[Jeff Capretto]

Below in the attached picture is a part labeled Glendenning inline reverse. It is located on my port motor. I believe it is tied to the engine sync system but am looking for confirmation. It has a very small oil leak, is anyone familiar is this a a simple gasket replacement or more complicated than that? Thank you for your help.

Yes, this is connected to the GD “sync box”.. It’s like a “speedo cable” in an old car and drives the “monkey motions” for that engine inside the “box”…Very clever machine…………Nothing scary–just take it apart, clean all and use “RectorSeal #5” for assembly where you think it is seeping oil. That’s what I’d try.
