Maybe the clip or roll pin fallen out of 5th gear mech. Drain the oil and take the end cover off (3 or 4 bolts) and have a look. It should be obvious if there is a prob.

As said above by Col, quite common for the large nuts to work loose on the ends of the gear assembly, this in term allows too much movement , & all,the teeth get stripped off the gears .
A relatively simple fix if this is the case.
