Default Cooling Problem w/ 4.3 GL vovlo I/O

I have a 2000 Glastron with a 4.3 lt. GL Volvo I/O. Last season the
impeller self destructed. I had not had a chance to replace the
impeller until today. (boat was put away in my garage for the winter)
I had replaced the impeller today but cannot get the water to flow
correctly. the water pump itself is functioning correctly but the
water is coming out of holes (approx. 1" in dia) on the motor under the

manifolds (both sides of the mtor). This water must be removed with
the bilage pump. What is causing this discharge of water from the
motor? It isn't the drain.... Any asistance would be greatly
appreciated. I would like to get this boat back on the water for my
kids.
