Haven't got one to hand to measure but it's most likely an Overshift bush.

That makes sense, that would explain why it is in the gear selector bin, and not a standard part.. I came across this...

The overshift bush prevents the gear selector arm from jumping off the drum for positive gear changes (avoids missed gears) during aggressive shifts.
It is mostly of use when an air shifter is fitted.
Probably not needed during foot changes but won't do any harm being in there.
