Thanks to Aged Horse, Bogey Bass, and all others who've replied to this topic!

Thank you Bogey Bass!

Hey Doofus - I have what is essentially the answer now. Check out Passinwind's response to my query - he posted the Service Manual to it. And then check out my 2nd response to Aged Horse where I explain what Yamaha told me about the parts, etc, and posted a picture of the Parts Service Manual...
