drive rubbing - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

it is pretty obvious in picture. at least 1 mm gap. and of course noticeable slop in drive mechanism .that might be why i am having contact on side of drive bay. my drive is a 2010 and i think i did not lube the shaft until recently. when i took the yak out , it would be for long hours on water . i probably should have broken it down and lube it more often . i might just pick up a new drive and then start rebuilding this one as a backup . anyone else have any opinions ?
