Looking from here the double tooth key way is at 9 o'clock and the selector tab is at 6 o'clock.
The other rod is the one the guy who built the gearbox gave me and is orientated the same.

The missing tooth on both is very nearly at the top, pretty much as per yours.
The one on the right will lock up with the black key on the side but the one on the left the hole is going to be in the wrong place.

to me it looks like the missing tooth on the spline and selecty lug at the bottom are both in the same place for your old 02A rod and the 02J, but the bumpy bit for the detent bolt is in the wrong place to suit the 02j alloy case layout.
would explain how you could drive it ok

When I drove it the new housing wasn't installed it was this one.
If the selecty tab and missing tooth are correct then the rest of the gear will attach ok, L bracket and bow catches and the box will shift gears, but maybe it has lined up with the smooth bit and not the bumpy bit so the shifting would be sloppy?
The two housings are the same with respect to indent pin.

the detent bolt and lumpy bit is what gives the nice positive click as you go in and out of gear, it serves no other purpose except to push the reverse light switch on the later 02J

When I removed it after I was really careful and I could just see the bumpy bit and it looked like one of the bumpy bits would have been used shifting through the box and the other gears would be on the smooth bit or hitting the small lumpy bits.
Cheers John, off to try and source a 02J MK4 rod. Later being 2003-2005?
That must be in double figures I owe on the beer front now.

Don't know what the curved slot is all about but the rest lines up!

I have the mating gearbox piece, well I'm assuming it the correct one, it came with that MK5 one I've got and has the sprung clip to go with the grooved shaft.
Do you think I should use that as well?

2. modify the cable bracket on gearbox mount. move it back a bit to get clearance
3. delete switch, mount a reed switch under the shift boot instead
