It looks like part of the bolt that stops the shifter flopping around...

Maybe..
Could be a roller out of a bearing but I don't think Zook boxes use needle roller bearings.

I wouldn't call a chipped gear like yours "normal".
A replacement shouldn't cost too much.
If you are re-using all your other gears, why not get a used input shaft from the wreckers or a gearbox rebuild specialist?

the part you see broken there is not a critical part , and its an odd part to break ... also there is no load on that part.

that is 4th gear , and the tooth that is broken is one of the teeth that hold the selector hub to the gear , 1 damaged tooth will not make it a problem

It was due to a bearing floating around the box.I think

My thoughts also, I wouldn't hesitate to put that back in if it was mine, if it was on the drive side of the gear and the gear surface was marked it would be different.
