Are the output shafts still available anywhere? NLA on the Minispares website. (The part that exits the gearbox and connects to the rubber cross) I have a persistent oil leak from mine despite replacing the seal not too long ago and the surface of it looks a little rough/pitted.

You could have ten for free for me.
I'd say it's the bush in the cover though...

Sounds like you are after the Yoke rather than the Shaft and as Vegard has suggested, replace (and ream) the bush while your at it.

If you want to get on in the UK, try the likes of Nick Rogers @ Min-e-bitz in Sheffield.

As has already been said though, make sure you fit & ream new bushes at the same time as fitting the new yoke.

I do a few trannys now and then. I find pressing the side cover bushes out replacing with new, bolting the side covers to a diff, housing I then line hone with a Sunnen king pin hone in the Sunnen rod machine. I have been collecting pot and yoke side covers and a few HS ones. I plan to order enough bushes to do a batch. Once the machine is set and the stones are dressed they go quickly. Steve (CTR)
