Major QSC engine work

Thanks, I'm working on the flushing setup for my main engines and generator, and using something like this rather than dragging the hose into the engine room every time seems like a good solution.
 
Those aftercoolers are the new style MOTO ones, yes?

I have the Seaboard fresh water flush fitting on my Groco strainer, with a quick-connect fitting. It's basically a full-port fitting that allows for full flow. The end mounted on the cap seals when the hose is removed as a backup to the handle shut-off.

On the oil drip, I think the pump for the QSC is gear driven vs. pulley driven. Off-hand I can't think of why oil would be dripping from a gasket on the water side - there shouldn't be oil on the water side. But maybe if there was a seal on gear side that was bad that might cause it. This is a pic of the water pump - maybe a gasket on the back side of the black flange?

I am noticing oil coming from my starboard engine raw water pump as well. First it was a couple of drops, now seems more. I am going to check the mounting flange for tightness, but I am fearing the worst. Does anyone have a part number for the pump, both Cummins and Sherwood, and what I might be expecting to pay should I need to replace it. Thanks
