Hoe to fix a Skil 5700 Saw not turning blade?

The blade spins freely, the motor runs normal.
Is this a broken drive shaft or gear? Can I repair this some how?

I took it apart and found that the worm gear on the end of the motor shaft was broken off and the gear it turned had 2 teeth sheared off. so I guess this thing is now history...
