I think I might've lost the "plug" (Haynes, pg. 35, part #17). Although the pictures in the manual suggest otherwise, can anyone tell me if this is how the "selector fork shaft" is supposed to sit or is it clearly missing the plug? Seems like it's in too far and needs the plug to sit properly. Should there be some play? I mean, this assembly does contain several other moving components. Or is the plug "glued" place? The casting opposite where the "selector fork shaft" and "plug" sits does look like something might have been frozen in place (both top engine case halves I have look like this).
Unfortunately, the Yamaha parts house seems to no longer carry them. Here's the link to that reference:

Lastly, does anybody have any idea where I might be able to find a replacement (other than a parts bike) or figure out what I could do or use to put in there so it sits correctly?
