If I recall, the rare Offshore Promax came with a 1 piece from the factory for 1 or maybe 2 years. Some will know exactly. I had so many problems with my 1 piece I finally threw it in a homemade blast furnace and turned it into ingots. Seriously, if you have any swings in water temps, forget the 1 piece IMO. Variables, are simply not a 1 piece's friend IMO.
Popey thanks for the posts and the info. I think you have yours sorted nicely.

I had to drill a small hole in the water inlet part of the adapter. The part of the adapter where the copper tube fits in too.
The 2 piece plate has a small hole in the same area. This did the trick on mine. Without doing it still ran colder as with the 2pc plate.
I made a video of my dash when running with the 2pc plate and the 1pc and it's just about the same. It took me a lot of testing but very happy I got it 100% right.
I use the water pump base with the small weep hole.

I am sorry.the 225 promax did come available as a 15 inch and one piece exhaust, only the alien cowl models though. The base plate part number is the same for both one and two piece plates. Only the 15 inch 225X has a unique number. Would explain confusion on promax models cooling system.

Correct 15" only and the popet does nothing with a 1pc.

Look at the stainless base plate in the cowl. Its all closed except at the popet area. This is how merc made it work... mount the wrong pan and you are in trouble.
