At WOT I would be surprised if you could hear a drive noise over the engine noise. If the oil isn't indicating anything going on, I wouldn't worry about it.
The paint getting cracked and chalky looking is usually from running on plane for long periods of time. The upper unit can get very hot when running on plane for extended periods. I would recommend a drive shower to help cool it down.

I have a noise like coming from the back of the engine and only whe is Under load? when they installed the outdrive they install a new gimbal bearing, some one told me is a bad Ujoint, how can I check and determine if the u joint is bad...Comment

Typically a u-joint that is bad will make a knocking noise while turned all the way. As it gets worse, it will make noise at less and less of an angle.
