doesn't matter, it has a heat exchanger also has a nice engine bay so the engine stays clear of salt water.
but if it didn't have a heat exchanger stainless isn't suggested because it conducts electrolysis.
i made the mistake once of putting in stainless plugs in my boat. the electrolysis
ate one out and i thought the boat was sinking. i kept the boat moving so water would not come in. i had a guy meet me at the boat ramp to do an emergency haul out.
if i knew it was just the plug fell out i would have jumped over board and stuck something in the hole. but i was worried i had hit a rock and broke the hull.
