Default 96 7.4L Z255 running out of water have questions?

I decided last year not to let marina change oil as I was gonna try it myself beginning this year. My only question is that to pump oil out I need to let it idle to get oil warm. Since I have never ran my boat outside of being in water where and what do I use to accomplish this! My dad had an older alpha 1 and he used these muffs on the lower sides of outdrive! Is mine set up the same way?

Thanks

Brad

    It's been a year and a half, so I hope he figured it out.
    And welcome aboard 🤪
