With the cover off and the bracket piece you reversed disconnected, what does the shift lever do? Have someone engage the reverse position on the stick shift and watch the inside of the tranny. Does the "dog" ear/control tab move freely? It should be obvious. So if it moves freely, then the problem is A.) the smaller idler gear (that which the control tab and bracket pushes backwards when reverse is engaged) not engaging it's two respective gears. Try pushing the gear backwards manually. If it moves freely, and the stick shift/shift rod/dog ear moves freely, then you're B.) missing a part of the bracket, or it's broken off and probably laying on the bottom of the gearbox. An easy part to replace if so.
