Pictured is an outboard that I have been given but it has no ID plate or identifying features apart from what you see. 

Any thoughts on how to determine the model & year?

1976 to 1979 the anode on the trim fin they came out +/- 1978 . i would say its a 1976 model with the model letter beginning with E or R and ending with either G or S

Bricker, Durban mentions   "G" which ties in the serial number I sent.

Thanks team......unfortunately none of those years fit as the waterpump has 6 retaining bolts and all the models from 1976-1979 are all 4 bolt pumps. 

The search continues......

Your motor has got a 1976 motor cover on and the water pump with 6 bolts started +/- 1980.

Yep....I was kinda heading towards that conclusion. Any way of telling if it's a Johnson or Evinrude? I just have a feeling the cowling has been popped on a later Evinrude .......no conclusive evidence but I've trawled through a heap of online schematics and manuals without being able to pin down the year or model number. Fading mid-blue paint on the leg has me wondering!!

Unfortunately my manual only covers Johnies/Evinrude 48-235hp 1973/1990. Sorry
