Default Fluid leak

Relatively new boat owner. 2000 1900SR. Had a great day on some rough water yesterday. Came out this morning to find a small puddle of blue oily fluid under the prop. See short video. Any ideas what may be the issue?

Looks like gear lube. Was the remote reservoir on the engine empty? The hose you pointed to comes from the reservoir and connects to a fitting on the drive.

Under Documents of this site you will find the Mercruiser manual for the Alpha so you can see how it’s plumbed.
