Fixing an analogue rev counter

[CC07 PEU]

I have an analogue rev counter on my Honda CB Two Fifty (1992 model).

The instrument/dial works fine and the cable isn't snapped.

It appears that the little flat blade down at the crank case (used for turning the cable) is the part that's broken. I don't know what that part is called in order to investigate how to fix it and order a replacement.

Has anybody repaired one of these before? Is it possible? What is the part called?

I'm guessing I'll have to drain the engine oil, take the right hand crank case cover off and replace the flat blade but I may be wrong...

Same as item 3 here:

Easy enough to get out as, in the case of the MTX, it is held in by the oil seal.

Ah, that's very useful, thanks. I'll be on the phone to the Honda dealer tomorrow to order a replacement. Will hopefully be easier to fix than anticipated!
