Gears busted in transit (pics(large))

I just got a set of gears in the mail from a fellow guy ( I promise I too will be a paying member soon) and one of the pinion's got janked up. No fault of the sender I am positive.....looks like they threw the box in transit.

I've never been inside of the pumpkin so I don't know how hard/costly this will be so someone please give me the heads up. Sorry I don't know what to describe this piece of sheetmetal as.

What are we talkin here? This is the D30. How replaceable is this piece?

That's just the oil slinger. It will be fine, just straighten it back out with a pair of pliers. So long as the actual gears and bearings are not damaged, the oil slinger won't hurt anything once you straighten it out. These are frequently bent when we pull them out. We just bend them back.

Good luck!

you should replace the oil slinger when you setup your gears anyways. a new one comes in the master install kit
