The same end bearing gone as it does on all of them.
I'm sure I read somewhere that a failure of this was possibly due to the fact that all the gears go through this one bearing or something like that.
Fingers crossed 65k, mine still feels nice and strong, no slack and no whineing yet.
How much would you charge to fix that? So so I can bear it in mind when mine eventually goes.

most gearboxs will have an input shaft bearing and output shaft bearing, same as this, obv plus the diff bearings.
So all gears will utilize the same bearing(s) yes as they are all on the same shaft, but this isnt unique to the M32, its a pretty standard setup.
IMO its due to shit manufacturing of the casing where the races are housed
