Hose nipple

[Twenty4Dupont]

I have a 1999 Johnson 25hp model #J25ELEEN which had a leaking vent hose I guess it's called that is on the crankcase under the coil pack to the bottom of the crankcase under the carb. In trying to replace this hose the nipple at the bottom of the crankcase broke off. How the heck is that replaced? Is it pressed in or screwed in? Is it still available to buy? I don't see anyway to replace it short of removing the motor completely to gain access to it.

Not sure, don't see a replacement listed. Might take it to your dealer and let them look at it.
