Are these bravo drives or alpha drives?

Hi

Have two mercruiser 5.0l engines about 250 hrs on them, one runs fine
the other runs hot. The engine gets hot after 45 min of running at
crusing speed, then it starts to lose power and oil pressure drops a
bit(one noch down, not in critcal zone). Had both water pumps changed
before the problem arrived. I have noticed that the problem engine also
takes more fuel then the other engine. Oil level is fine, what should I
be checking?
