Is it normal for the shaft to nearly be worn righ through and the pivot point to be cracked and twice the size as it should be, just not sure if this indicated high mileage or is a common feature.

 The one you describe sounds like high mileage but it is also common to crack where they bolt to the firewall.

ok, yeah this one is cracked where the shaft goes through. Not where the firewall holes are.
