1983 Carver Mariner V drive cooling system help


Hi all and if I'm in the wrong place for this I'm sorry, let me know and I will look elsewhere. I recently got a deal I couldn't refuse on a model 2897 Carver 1983 with twin 305 chevys. Anyway my only issue with the boat is the V-drives. The cooling hoses are disconnected on all ends and the hoses lay on the bottom of the boat starting and ending nowhere. Does anyone have a cooling schematic or photo for me to trace all this out. I read I should pressure test the cooling pipe inside the V-drive to be sure there is no water leaks into the drive oil. This is no sweat and and easy test. I have all the equipment to do this as I am a semi-retired mechanic with 50 years under my belt. Any and all suggestions will be greatly appreciated. Thanks,
