5th has probably gone. Design defect (covered in a few threads on here) with all the 1.0 until the later models. 

New box, or our needs reconditioning.

Sorry to break the bad news :(

same issue in the 1.4 models too often linked to a leaking gearbox

Yes, the oil fluid level only just covers 5th doesn't it? I think I'm correct in saying that when the fluid leaks slowly, 5th is starved of oil and therefore makes it more prone to breaking.
