This is described as ADAPTER, FRESH WATER PUMP INLET.  At the rear is a ‘valve’ and whilst I understand that is an inlet I would like to know under what circumstances would it be used or in other words what’s it’s purpose in the big scheme of things😁

I'd suggest that (like on an outboard engine) it is used to regularly flush the engine with 'fresh' water and get rid of the salt deposits that accumulate (from sea-water) when used in the marine environment.

Thank you for the reply Alan.  I’ll have to look up that up.  Whilst this is the fresh water cooling system and not the raw water cooling I suppose it still assists the flushing process.
