The ph1 has been at a transmission specalists since yesterday assessing the damage and he has sent me some photos to explain what exactly has happened.

Only had the car 2 days before it happened so it looks like the box has suffered a hard life lol

That hole should be round

That should have the same diameter all the way along the bar

the wrecked clutch (He managed to remove the gearbox without removing the subframe)

Oil in clutch compartment

drive chain

new clutch ready

its not worth repairing. I have a spare box so going to get him to bodge two boxes together. Also strengthening it by using a thicker circlip apparently

You can get it out the top, would've thought it'd be easier to go out the bottom though. Gold star to him either way!
