Broken jet housing below clean out hose.

if you eliminate it be sure the part you weld on the tunnel is perfect or it will be a problem you would need to close it at the bottom removing all the rest of it above and get the inner part to match the rest of the tunnel as one continuous smooth tube feeding the water to eliminate cavitation
 
I wonder if you could have stainless sleeves made that could be pressed in to the void and eliminate the clean out access
 
If I had either of those parts I would have offered them up. However, to get them I would have had to cut them out and expose myself to fiberglass dust which I wasn’t willing to do so I scrapped the hull with those still installed.

fyi the only other metal I left on that hull were the parts of the pump and plates that the drive shafts go through to the hull. Unlike the clean out plug mounts which are molded into the hull these parts are “only” glued in place.
