The gears for the OD and nonOD are the same and the out put shaft can be repaired by cutting the pressed on retainer off and machining a grove for a snap ring. Then it is necessary to machine a spacer that is wide enough to put about 4 or 5 thousands preload on the 1st and 2nd gear bearings. Not the best but a good machinist can do the job. I would look for a used out put shaft in good shape to be safe.
