Missing Speedometer Gears (700R4)

I just recently purchased an 84 Camaro and the previous owner told me that the speedometer did not work because he did not have the right gear for the it (he did a rear end swap for disk brakes and a 3.23). I pulled the driven gear housing off the tranny to find out how many teeth my drive gear had, only to find out the tranny had no drive gear (I guess I never did ask WHICH gear it was missing)!

Heres my question: Does anybody have a diagram/picture of what the DRIVE gear looks like and how it is installed (included any clips/tabs/housings/etc. that hold it to the output shaft)? I have no idea what parts I need to buy in order to install the drive gear.

You just need the gear and a clip for it. Check the tech articles for it.

I checked the tech articles, but did not see any pictures of the parts. Since the car does not have a drive gear on the output shaft right now (and I have never done this before), I want to make sure I have at least seen the parts I need before tearing into the job and finding out that I need something additional (or different).

I may just stop at the chevy dealer tonight and see if they can pull up an exploded part drawing for me.
