I have a Ford 3600 diesel in which the tachometer cable was broken. I replaced the cable and after testing, determined that something is also wrong with the connection on the engine where the cable attaches, and it does not turn. This is immediately in front of the hydraulic filter and under the oil filter. 1) is this an easy problem to fix, and 2) what is the name of the part I need. The area where the cable connects has a dome with a bolt on the top which I did not remove out of concern it would leak oil. WIll it? Thanks.

There is a short cable inside that assembly, driven by the oil pump, and driving the long cable you just replaced. The short cable is undoubtedly broken. Loosen or remove the 5/16" bolt that clamps the assembly together, pry out the housing, there will be a cable guide, an expansion ring and an o-ring to seal the joint. It's not that complicated, once you dive into it. You may want to remove the oil filter for more room. Replace the o-ring to ensure no leakage when you are done.
