Default T5 gearbox advice

If there is any gearbox experts out there who can advise on the condition of my T5
itvwas taken out 4 years ago and from memory gear selection was very good but that’s all I can remember ​​​​​
If someone can advise on the following
gearbox looks original
1...input shaft spins really easy
2...it makes a rumbling noise when input shaft is spun by hand but has no oil in
3...input shaft has a sideways movement of approx 1.5-2.0mm at end
4...oil was dark in colour but no burn smell
5...not sure if drain plug is magnetic but nothing was on the plug ( very clean )

many thanks
