Hull gasket for jetpump 2004 speedster 160

[BADEN420]

Hello friends. I have a 2004 speedster 160 with the mercury m2 jetdrive. Something broke in my jet drive gear box. I found a good condition used replacement jet pump. Does anyone know what gaskets I need to swap this? I see a rectangle shaped gasket on the parts diagram but no part number. It looks like a clamshell gasket that gets siliconed to the hull? Has anyone had luck re using this gasket or know where I can get a new one? Also does anyone know what holds the jet drive in place? Is it just attached to the motor with the hull sandwiched in between? I assume that I have to remove the motor to get the pump out? Thanks for any help.

View numbers 9, 10, 34. Mercury is very proud of their parts. These are old parts. Scary to think what new model parts are priced.

Engine comes up and out. Pump goes down and out after engine comes out. Service book????
