So somewhere in my stash of bags, I lost the little bolt that holds the speedometer drive gear to the transmission.

Where can I get one of these? What's the threading/pitch on that little bolt?

Note, it has to have that little tip to stick into the side of the angle drive casing thingy.

Assuming it's a side shifter, not too much will fall out other than the reverse idler gear as suggested. Nothing else should come out. You'll have to remove the muffler as you noted. Don't forget to drain the oil first!

On another note, I made one of those bolts once in a pinch, using a regular 8mm bolt, and it worked fine. Better to get a correct one though.
