... it was loose but its all good ...

What exactly do you mean by this?

The seal should be available by itself and can be changed without dropping the oil pan if you use the correct tool.

It's difficult to know just how much you don't know until you know it.
In other words... if people learn by making mistakes, by now I should know just about everything!!!

Pioneer 759022 or Napa NOS 4912 if the manual shaft (aka, shift shaft and selector shaft) wasn't grooved by the lip of the old seal wearing into it.

Napa NOS 480050 if the manual shaft was grooved by the old seal.
