If you have any doubt about what you need, it's probably a good idea to shop locally at an authorized Merc dealer and have your engine and drive serial numbers handy. There's subtle differences in some stuff within the same year of manufacture.
In case you did not know, NAPA Auto Parts has an extensive marine catalog and some of the stores near popular boating destinations have marine parts in stock. I was able to get a starter right off the shelf, for my Merc 7.4MPI in the Portsmouth NAPA, on a Sunday morning, two years ago.

FWIW - I've heard some stories about doug russell, and wouldn't go there if I wasn't desperate or was worried about them honoring the warranty.
