915 vs G50 shift coupler

Researching what I expect to need to replace to fix a sloppy shift lever on 88 Carrera: ball socket (911.424.139.01), and bushing on shift lever mount (950.424.224.030). Anything else?
I have two questions for G50 experts:
1. what does the 'insulating hose' (999.615.047.40) on the gear shift rod do? Should I expect to replace it?
2. The shift coupler looks completely different from the 915 shift coupler that Pelican and other places sell. I notice that Pelican does not sell the G50 shift coupler (950.424.028.03), only the 915 one. Do G50 shift couplers not need replacing, and if they do, how would I know when I look at it?
For a picture of G50 shift coupler see PET CD: MG=7/SG=01/Illustration=701-01
Same picture, with fewer labels in Parts and Tech Ref Catalogue pp.68-69

G50 Shift Coupler

Hello buddy, I am going to change the bushings for easier shifting on my '88 G50. I thought I would also change the shift coupler and that it would be something like this:

But instead my research shows that the coupler for the G50 is this one:

I'm going to hold off on changing it until I get to see the current one with my own eyes.
