I think he's saying his solution avoids the $900 but the trans has to come out to do it. It sounds like it has to come out for the $900 way too.

Yes. This.

Because I was finally doing my clutch anyway, it was easy to get the gear box cover off. The shift lever is held on by a simple clip inside. I had the old bushing machined out and a roller bearing pressed in. The real problem is the final outer seal. If there's wobble in the lever arm, it will leak again fast. If not much play, then you just need that outer seal.
