Compatibility Information
Catalog references identify this gasket for applicable Mercury Marine and MerCruiser oil pan drain plug applications. The available catalog evidence does not establish one universal fitment across every engine, horsepower rating, year, or serial-number range.
Before ordering, compare the removed gasket and verify the reference number in the correct parts diagram for your exact engine model, year, and serial number. Do not rely on horsepower alone to determine fitment.
| Application | Verified Reference | Fitment Note |
|---|---|---|
| Mercury Marine and MerCruiser oil pan drain plug applications | 27-49955 | Confirm the exact engine parts catalog before installation |
| Replacement or superseded reference | 8M0077608 | Use only where the engine catalog identifies this reference |

Troubleshooting & FAQ
How do I confirm whether this gasket fits my engine?
Confirm that your engine’s parts catalog or service manual lists Mercury Marine 27-49955, 8M0077608, or the applicable replacement reference. Check the exact model, year, and serial-number range rather than relying only on engine horsepower.
Is this gasket for the oil pan or the gear case?
The available catalog evidence identifies the matching replacement as an oil pan drain plug gasket. Do not use it for a gear-case drain plug unless your exact parts catalog specifies the same reference for that application.
How many gaskets are included?
This listing includes two aftermarket gaskets. Install one new gasket each time the applicable drain plug is removed, and retain the second gasket as a spare.
Should the gasket be reused?
Drain plug sealing washers are generally intended to be replaced whenever the drain plug is removed. Reusing a compressed or damaged gasket can increase the risk of oil seepage.
Is this an OEM Mercury Marine gasket?
No. This listing is for an aftermarket replacement. The Mercury Marine numbers shown above are reference numbers used to help identify the applicable replacement.
Safety & Important Info
- Allow hot oil and engine components to cool before service.
- Verify the exact part reference, engine model, year, and serial-number range before ordering.
- Use the correct lubricant, fill quantity, and drain-plug torque specified by the engine manufacturer.
- Inspect for leaks after installation and before operating the engine.
- This is an aftermarket replacement, not an OEM component.
