14mm brass bushing

I've just started dissecting my transmission and I am wondering about how to judge the wear on the 14mm brass bushing. Should I be concerned about looseness in the fit between the bushing and the shaft or between the bushing and the gears?

Also, has anyone used one of the repops from Tim McDowell?

I have mine in pieces and it has noticable gear to bushing play. Nothing from bushing to shaft. I plan on replacing it w/ the one from the link you gave. I figure its a long ways back in there if it were to cause troubles. Cost is minimal.
