Pulled the transmission...

Hi Everyone.
I finally got a few hours free and pulled the engine/trans this morning. The good news is that nothing appears obviously broken.

The bad news is that something just looks - and pardon my use of technical language here - out of whack. The gears don't seem lined up the way they should be.

With the nose cover off, I can move the selector into four (?) positions, as shown below.

Pictures (after the diagram)
1) Fifth gear engaged, but with the selector travelling too far and part #16 "Sliding Gear, 5th and reverse" touching the slant-cut gear of part #19,
2) Reverse "sort of" engaged
3) Reverse "sort of" engaged, but in a different way
4) Neutral. I can rotate the rod and select other gears from this position.

I hope this post makes some sense. Is this possibly a slipped/out of adjustment 5/R selector fork (#15)? What should I do next?

Thanks!
Colin
