Trying to figure out what this aluminum housing is between the water pump and the accessory pulley that is like the timing cover and where I could find one. This one appears to be at the end of its saltwater life.

Waterpump drive housing. I think it's the same housing on a V-71 engine too.

That leads to just water pumps, this damn thing is a dinosaur on finding parts as such. Looks to be a special piece that will need to be pulled from a dead engine.

It sure does look like the same part used on the V-71 engines!
I don't have a 92 parts book but in the 71 book they show 3 or 4 different covers. Some had a hole where that circle is in the center and there was a short shaft attached to the front of the gear that drives the water pump and there was a generator pulley mounted to that on some of our engines. Some just used an expansion plug to fill the hole if not needed and some had a small steel cover that bolted over the hole and others were made with the hole not bored out.
Attached is the page out of the 92 manual on the cover:
