transmission question

Hey guys im looking at getting a 1996 f350 4wd with a 460 big block and the only problem is that reverse is gone in the truck my question is how bad is this to fix? are we talking new transmission or can we replace the valve body inside?

For an E4OD easy to spend that.

It may be a C6 also.

Does it have P R N D 2 1
or
P R N O D 1

or is there a button on the end of the shifter to lock out OD?
