There is a link that connects the shift rod just above the gearbox at the lower end. Sounds like one of the pins fell out of it.

Did anyone remove the shift link pin in the lower end? That would cause this problem.

Try disconnecting the shift linkage at the lower by removing the cotter pin.

While spinning the prop by hand, see if you can disengage the gear.
