    It looks like my gear change shaft is damaged that I can't see
    I have another engine
    Can I remove the shaft without stripping the engine hopefully I can remove the cover that holds the oil seal and remove the shaft

    Does the shaft look bent?

    Otherwise, if you're careful, the oil seal around gear change shaft can be removed by drilling a small pilot hole then inserting self tapping screws a few turns.

    Once they're in use them to lever the leaking seal out.

    A new seal can then be fitted using a socket or piece of pipe or plastic conduit [anything suitable basically] to push the new seal into place.
