Sorta looks like where the speedo cable connects into the box

But why/how did it melt like that


Try and get some multigrips around it or vice grips and spray heaps of WD40 on it and try and screw it out.....

Definitely the original electronic speedo transmitter...looks like she got a bit warm...donor car must have been burnt out...
Need to dig it out,could possible drill it out... the mechanical one out of the 5 speed will fit...but the gearing will be different because of the diff ratio change.
