Updating this. I got back from the 4 day weekend, we ran the generator quite a bit (it was hot weather, so we ran the AC a lot) and I did indeed see a sheen on the water when I was running it. I also had some sooting on anything that was in the water - lines, floats, etc. I'm pretty sure that it is, as Mark indicated above, the exhaust elbow. Without confirming that yet, I'm inclined to buy the kit from Westerbeke and replace the entire assembly since I'm sure it's original, and that would allow a straight swap right away and not have to deal with finding a place to get it cleaned before I leave for my big trip in 2 weeks.
I just wanted to confirm that this is what I'm looking at (I think it is based on pics from David's post above):
Parts manual:
Westerbeke kit (it's just over $100):
Does that look right? If I pull it off and it's not clogged, I'll deal with that, but I think given the info I got from this thread, it's going to be pretty likely.
