826 LE Toro auger/tranny question

Hi, I have an '05 or '06 826 LE. Just ran over some garden hose tonite. Cleared it out ok. The right hand auger now spins freely when you use your hand. The left hand side auger still remains locked when you try to wiggle it. When I engage the auger, both sides spin, but I know the right hand side should not spin when I use my hand.
So, is this a stripped helical gear? What about thrust bearings/ Are there pins on either side of the drive shaft? I'm concerned because one side is able to move in either direction while the other doesn't. Are there two separate gears inside the housing?
Any advice?
Thanks.
