In preparation I took some photos and am compiling a list of parts and supplies. Your input is welcome.

First off, the raw water pump(s) needs attention.
In addition to replacing the impeller and o-ring, the book says to replace the wear plate.
My yard guy is recommending I replace the cam, what do you think?

Here's the whole left side of the engine.
Those brown stains are from a since-fixed fuel leak.
I'm thinking a degreaser should clean it up some.

Heat exchanger needs end plates and gaskets.
I'll need to take it apart to ascertain the amount of corrosion and/or damage it has sustained.
(Note: the hose w/ the elbow is not mine)

I'm lucky this belt didn't break while underway. I'll replace both sides.

These small flexible radiator hoses are OK but I need a set on the port side.

I want to touch up the paint some, how hard would a complete paint job be I wonder?
Need a couple vibration isolators. And an oil pan gasket.
