I had been having some shifting issues going into 1st and reverse on occasion. My mechanic showed me the worn parts and said they need replacement. Not sure what they are called, and want to know if they are available new.
Big thanks to Bruce Stone; he brought the parts and saved the day !
Lastly, why did they wear out ?

Not sure what you're showing, you have 3 pix. It would seem to me the first pic is of a tube or the ball the shift fork pivots on. The second is the fork which should have a white plastic cup/bushing/socket/? in the hole for the pivot ball, the third is the shift fork. What are you asking about?
There is a link to the 914 PET in my signature. These parts are shown in an exploded diagram in 301-10 along with part numbers.
The plastic cup was missing; I have a replacement. The cups are easy to find
That's why it's worn, Jim. No cup washer. Should feel much smoother now.
Usually it should be replaced every time you replace the clutch. Mostly because it's a pain to tear everything apart again later just to replace a freakin' 75-cent bushing.

It is suggested that you replace all your plastic shifting parts at every 40 year scheduled service period.
You are all set for a while now.
New info: I found the clutch release fork is NLA; but found a number of them on eBay for prices ranging from $35 -$85
The round gizmo seems to be available . Couldn't find any throw out bearing shafts.
Good news is Bruce has the parts and we are back in business
