It looks intact, but until you get your gearshift in P or N, no way to tell if sw is OK or adjusted properly without removing and actuating manually. If your driveshaft is disconnected where nothing can happen you can jumper or connect the 2 brown wires together just to see if eng will turn over but wouldn't try to do a lot until your shift is squared away.

You can also use a meter or test light at that switch and see where you lose voltage. For example if it is on one brown wire but not the other, the Prk sw is problem but if on both, then solenoid or associated and if on neither then ign sw (also known fail area).

The fact trans is locked now and shaft had to be removed, means it should already be in Park so more needs to be investigated.
