I hate to be redundant with posts but surely someone who has built a t-5 remembers 2 differently shaped synchro inserts/dogs. Im stuck trying to get my t-5 back together the problem is with the remaining 3 inserts for 3rd and 4th synchro assy, they are different fron the 5th gear syncro inserts, the 5th gear ones were smoothe on the sides these other ones have kinda like little wings on both sides of the insert and they dont seem to fit between the cutouts,did I install the wrong ones in the other synchro assy?
 
I have my old T5 ripped apart down stairs. I can say that the 5th gear assemebly had the bumps on the keyways.

As for the gear shaft....I know that the bigger gear of the two had the smooth keyway's.

The one closer to your input shaft had a bump in it but didnt have the ears on the back side of keyway.


Hope I'm on the right page with you. Good luck.
