Harder to guess with no size reference- spider gears on a diff maybe? There appears to be a HEAP of wear on the shaft thing(technical term)...

I reckon it's engine braking that's caused it to finally go. Having changed to a manual gearbox, my guess is that is now the weakest link.

i would take a guess that its the welding thats weakened it. but the severely worn cross pin shows it was pretty stuffed before the welding. looks like you got your money out of it, time for a locker.
