Hi there,
On our recently acquired 2700, the engine surveyor highlighted some concerning corrosion around the rear of the trans coolers (see photo) and recommended replacement of these.
The indicated part # is 63832A1 and the surveyor indicated that OEM is not needed on this part and they are relatively cheap. I see these that indicate they are US made - any issues going with these?

As for replacement, how involved is this? I have no experience with boat transmissions and since these involve both coolant (or is it raw water?) and the trans fluid, I'm concerned it could be quite a bear to do.
Any advice on this is welcome!
Thank you.
