Dave;
     start simple.  Pull all the spark plugs,  shoot a bit of oil into each 
cylinder, change oil to a high-detergent type and  crank over with the plugs 
out.  Confirm that there is oil pressure.   You can make an oil pump drive and 
spin it up with a drill if you wish.  If  you have oil pressure and the motor 
is spinning well, replace the plugs and run  it for a short while.  A 
compression test will tell you if there is a blown  head gasket.  Find a better 
marine 
mechanic or commit to doing your own  work.
