The “tab” fell out of the selector shaft.
It’s usually pressed in I think. Can I just weld the tail of it to the shaft and grind off any excess weld ?

(puts welding engineer hat on)
I would shorten it a bit so it's a couple of mm below the surface to plug weld it.
It's an unknown alloy steel, so I would stick weld with a 309 or 316 rod, or MIG it with S6 wire.
