Yes that looks like the swivel exhaust on a 440
That is what my big problem is. One motor is water tight and the other side leaks and seeps in eventually getting in motor and blowing a head gasket
If i could redo my swivel and get rid of the riser and just have an elbow. I would do it asap
Btw very nice setup

Prowlerfish, what should I know about the OEM exhaust risers?
When they fail , ( leak internally ) you will end up with water in the turbo and the exhaust . Could happen slowly or quickly . its better off to have a design where the water in the riser/ elbow will drain when shut down . In many cases the riser part is made dry and water enters the exhaust riser on the outlet side . If it was to leak then it would not go back in to the engine . Mine are elbows ( no riser ) that will drain down . Not prefect but better . Just something to think about , not a rush but it could bite you 5 years down the road . So maybe in a year or 2 , after you recover from this LOL .
The riser elbow height can be a issue on some boats , but I believe yours will be well above the water line ( 12" recommended min )
More to think about. Thanks, I think.
