Hello, hope you guys can help me because I can't find much information
I'm confused by this tank, you can fill it on top of the boat similar to how you'd fill fuel, the yellowing clear hose leads out to a small hole where I assume whatever fluid could go out, the big black hose says oil resistant on it, it leads to the engine, I checked inside the hose and there seemed to be water but it could have been rain water that leaked into the tank.

I don't see what the tank is for, there is a pump to bring in seawater in the bottom for cooling., so what purpose could this tank have? Contain oil? But I thought I'd fill that in the engine block. Hmm I dont know

Also does anyone know what engine model it is? The owner or people I bought the boat from have said "volvo d96" and "Volvo penta 175hp" but I can't really find one that looks exactly the same online yet.
