I filled it up with water and it pissed out what I thought was the water pump so took it off and found it wasn’t a water pump ,it a housing that the alternator is fitted to so rang kubota up, comes as one whole unit with alternator £237 , that made me nearly piss my pants😡why can’t you buy just the alloy bit, and where is the water pump?
