250 SHO 5yr/500hr service?
My 2014 250 SHO is coming up on 5 years/500 hours. Owner's manual calls for anode replacements at numerous locations, OCV (oil control valve) filter replacement and valve clearance inspection/adjustment.
I'm not familiar with the service procedures on these items, though I have done all other maintenance service myself. Anyone familiar with the service procedures and part costs? DIY or shop work? Any advice from those with first hand experience appreciated. Thanks!

I don’t think there is very many that has had one to make it to 500 hrs to know?

Yeah, good point. After my original post I remembered I grenaded my engine at 250 hrs. Yamaha installed a new long block and had me back on the water pretty quick, so thankful for that. So I guess I need to determine which of the components above were installed as new with the long block replacement. I would assume the valve clearance/adjustment is good to 750 hours now. Not sure about the OCV or anode components.
