Hard to say without removing the leather/pvc g gearbox cover but the best case scenario is that the gear stick has become unscrewed from the box. Can be replaced without having to remove the actual metal cover but a bit fiddly to do.
Worst case scenario is that the plastic washers in the gear lever have split. In this case the lever must be replaced as I don't think a repair kit is available
Not sure where you would get a OE replacement from, the FoMoCo part no for a 4speed gear lever I have is listed as NLA.
There is an upgrade you can do with a rose jointed gearshift which does away with the plastic washers. I had one from Matt Lewis Racing for my 4/4 (before I went 5 speed), it needed some fairly radical shortening. Worked pretty well but was very easy to engage reverse when you wanted 1st!
