Was just getting ready to put the motor back in when I decided to pull the recoil cover and check on the belt. First thing I notice when I take the oil pump off is the oil pump drive slot is wasted , it looks like a straight screw head that is stripped.

So I need a oil pump/water pump drive (if that's what it is called) and a water pump belt.

The dealers around here suck so any ideas on where to get these items on line ?
Also has anyone had to do this change ? How tough is it ? can it bee done without trashing any of those seals ?

The 2003 700 pro x doesn't work. Just use a sled with same motor or different year.
