I think you might find a better source for advice on how to make repairs to your 50-year-old outboard engine if you found a website whose primary interest was in the restoration of antique outboards. The primary interest of the CONTINUOUSWAVE website is in Boston Whaler boats, so we often have discussions about 50-year-old Boston Whaler boats, but I seriously doubt that there is a wide readership here who are acquainted with the details of disassembling the mechanical components of your 50-year-old outboard. Your own interests will be better served on an antique outboard engine website.

I've got a 1970 - 40 hp, and it's a similar setup. I pulled the powerhead, and I'm almost certain that's the only way it would come out. There were 2 bolts that attach to the top of the starter.
