After its stripped down and looked at it may be the synchros and gears expect to pay £500-£600 or source a second hand box.

Give me a mail with your car details and I'll source some alternative options, though does initially sound like the gears have gone.

I wouldn't have thought synchros would make a whining noise, interesting because 4th and 5th gear are completely seperate. on the main shaft 4th and 5th have different needle bearings so you wouldn't expect only those two to go.

The only thing I could put it down to would be the drive pinion roller bearing or the main shaft ball bearing.
