I believe it was in 2000 that they stopped using the plastic gear.
I don't know how to provide a direct link, but if you go to Kawasaki Forums, you can find the info there.
Sorry I couldn't be of more help.

That's a POG (plastic oil gear). There is a fix without splitting cases for a couple hundred bucks.
