The vehicle speed sensor is located on the transaxle output shaft, on the passenger side of the car. It will be near the inboard cv joint on the right side drive shaft.
from where you are pointing, I am thinking that one has a transfer case bolted to it and the other is out of a car
the problem there is that if you move the extension housing from one to the other there will be no out put shaft from the transmission for the drive shaft or the out put shaft will not fit in the existing drive line
which ever way , it would appear to be a problem that may be fixable by changing shafts in the transmission but that could be more costly than what it is worth
there is a roll pin that holds the drive gear to the distributor shaft. if you can note the position of the gear or take a picture of it before removal to help when reassembling. then pull the shaft out of the housing, it may be hard to remove because of the old oil build up on the shaft so you may have to clean and spray the shaft to aid in removal. its been a while so there may be a lock clip at the base of the distributor shaft were it is close to the housing to keep the shaft from running up into the distributor cap causing damage.

There is a nice writeup buletin on this repair, you need to remove driveshaft and split it in the joint area to be able to replace the center support bearing. I did this twice already on my 99ML320.
You can find all the info with pictures in your local library computer under alldata automotive repair. Or go to mercedes forum sites. Good luck, Bernard
I have a '88 Ranger XLT extra cab 4X4 w/auto tranny (2.9L V6) that had a 2-piece driveshaft on it. After adding a 4" suspension lift, there was a strong vibration whenever I took off from a dead stop. I replaced the drive shaft with a beefed up 1 piece custom built by a shop specializing in drive shafts. The truck no longer had any vibration, and it hooks up immediately on exceleration. I found the shop on Ebay advertising drive shafts. All I had to do was measure the length from the transfer case/Tranny to the rear differential. The length of the new drive shaft allowed me to adjust almost 3/4" so all I had to do was get it close. I also took close up pictures so the shop could match up the correct flange on both ends of the driveshaft. The last thing I had to do was flip the crossmember brace so it wouldn't interfere with the new drive shaft.
