Google is going to be your best friend. Put this in your Google, including
the pluses: +Cummins+3A1.7, and there is a British dealer who lists a parts
catalog (don't know what it costs, though).

If you know the model number of your transmission, put that in Google also.
Turned out that my Hurth HBW5-2R (I fortunately found the the metal tag
with the model number when throroughly cleaning the bilge one time) is no a
ZF5M. And the diagrams are available on the web for the url given by Jonathan.

Here is another site with Hurth transmissions
