I believe the M is different than the H in that the pilot bearing on the M is a ball bearing whereas on the H, it is a roller bearing and has no outer race. The hole in the main drive gear serves as the outer race on the H. I've not had an M transmission apart, but from the parts book, it looks like there is a snap ring to retain the bearing in the hole in the main drive gear. If so, that snap ring will have to come out before you can get main drive assembly out. Looks to me getting that snap ring out or back in won't be easy as there is not much space to work. To get it back together, the main drive gear assembly with the bearing holder and all will have to come out the front of the transmission housing. It's held in there with 6 bolts I believe.
