The gear selector rod seal comes in a kit along with a rubber banjo and an alloy spacer (which you probably won't need as most Minis already have one fitted).

It's not too difficult a job, but the hardest part is getting the roll pin out (with a roll pin punch or something similar) so you can disconnect the rod and replace the seal.

All the parts you need are available from Mini Spares.
