High temp/low oil warning came on, Mariner 150 Magnum. Water pump is peeing good stream so I'm guessing something is amiss with the oil injection. Oil tank is full. Any guesses
What I should be checking,?

I’m no mechanic but I’ll answer exactly what I would do. First thing to check should be the oil level, best possible answer could be just low on oli and or bad filter. Next the oil condition, how long has it been since you changed it? I know older burnt oil breaks down and provides much less oil pressure. May be time for and oil/filter change not just adding new oil to top off the level. Worst case would be the oil pump itself. Good luck!

Since when do you change oil on a 2 stroke.

Is the horn constant or beeping. Just because it is peeing doesn't mean it's not overheating

What I should be checking,? See if the cap on the oil container is on and sealed properly .

Check oil level on tank under cowling, check float and see if sticking, also check oil lines to and from large oil tank for leaks.

Dip your finger in the oil container and see if it smells like gas.. I had this problem on a 200 EFI and vacated the oil pump, tank and went to mixing my fuel... Best to have a mechanic do it...call Ronnie and Justin at X-treme Marine in Grand prairie...

I've checked all the obvious things I can think of. I can't find anything that jumps out as a problem. One of the posts said to check the float in the oil reservoir so I'm trying to find that. Another post commented on the oil filter which I'm still looking for. I found the fuel filter but so far no oil filter. Was hoping to see something that would indicate whether or not it was pumping oil. The small reservoir on top of the motor has oil in it but I don't know how to tell if it's injecting it or not. Still scratching my head lol.
