1974 Sonett - won't shift into gear?

92, 93, 95, 96 & Sonett Workshop- Vintage Models

Question on the Inner CV Drive shaft

92, 93, 95, 96 & Sonett Workshop- Vintage Models

On the inner shaft (the short stubby one that goes into the transmission) is there a snap ring or lock ring to secure it. I see that the shaft has a groove, but don't know if it uses a ring that is integrated with the differential, or I need to have a ring present. If it needs a ring, any idea...
