When I store the Scripps for the winter there are two bolts one at the manifold and the other at the water pump. These have been removed and water drained out. Engine was started and run until there was no longer water coming from the exhaust pipe. Is there any other area on the engine where water is still stored?

There should be a plug near the rear of the engine, lower down on the block that drains the water from the cooling jacket - they're sometime hard to find - you mightlook for rust traces
