Abstract
A marine engine includes an exhaust manifold, a valve cover, a top cover, and a fuel supply pipe. The exhaust manifold collects exhaust gases discharged from a plurality of cylinders. The valve cover is a cover that covers all of a plurality of valves for air intake or air discharge to or from the cylinders. The top cover is a cover that covers the valve cover. The fuel supply pipe is arranged in a space between the valve cover and the top cover, and allows a fuel to flow therethrough. The top cover is provided with a partition that is arranged so as to separate the side where the exhaust gas flows immediately after being discharged from the exhaust manifold from the side where the fuel supply pipe is arranged.
