Oil leak and play in gearbox shaft question

Hi All,

The engine is back in the hole on Lucy :)

Looking at the gearbox there's a bit of play in the shaft - Around 1.5 mm movement side to side at the end of the shaft. Is this of concern or normal?

Also there was a lot of oily muck in there (I've cleaned up the bellhousing, but you can see how much is there further back). With no history or when it was last worked on is this too much and should I be looking at changing seals etc.? Is this DIY level?

Thanks

Paul.
