I pulled the gear off of the end of my cable and stuck it back in the tranny to keep it from leaking.

I noticed you're from arizona. Not sure exactly where, but there is a place in Chandler that has a bunch of old mustangs and lots of new parts. Last time i checked they were giving away a junk '71 mach 1. You might be able to get some parts from them for the speedometer. I think its on elliot road near arizona or something. Its in a strip mall on the north side of the road.

This does work sometimes, or at least lessens the leak a bunch. You could also measure the diameter of the hole and buy one of those rubber plugs that are often used to replace freeze plugs. Just insert and tighten the bolt. . . .
