Gear Selection Problems With Selector/interlock

The side effect problem getting in the way of rectification is that the rod selector and outer interlock won't move anticlockwise to allow me the select 1st and 4th at the same time so I can undo the big nut on the first motion shaft. Something is blocking it, can't see what but it is a hard metallic block. I'll disassemble it somehow but anyone got any ideas what the block is? I managed easily to do it when I stripped the box down to refresh it, now can't?

Can you post up some photos ?
One from the Top and also one showing the Interlock and Bell Cranks.

Glad it's come good.
I can see in the very first photo that 1st / 2nd Bellcrank had slipped behind the Interlock when it was re-engaged, effectively locking it in 2nd gear, while some of the other gears could also be selected.
When re-assembling it, be sure it's in Neutral when re-engaging the Interlock and that the Bellcranks, particularly 1st / 2nd have remained engaged in the selector forks and that the slots where the interlock runs through are all lined up.
