Larry - after this much time it could be anything. I've replaced my
filler twice. It could be simple marine putty, fairing compound, etc.
You can pick at it and see. The strut is bolted into a recess and
puttied fair. The last time I did it, I used fiber reinforced
vinylester putty from Everlast, and that seems to be holding up really
well.
As to why it's failing, it could just be age. Or it could be vibration
from a loose cutlass bearing, or you might have wrapped something around
the prop without noticing. Unless there's water coming inside the boat
it's just superficial.

I understand after they are installed (bolted up) they are glazed in, using
epoxy or fairing or a combination, possibly even glassed in (rare).
