That looks a bit like my favourite VCR mechanism, I think it's called the D deck (might be wrong on that) In Aus that mechanism appeared in National branded decks (we did not have Panasonic here as a brand name much then), models included the NV-280, 450, 470, 870, G10, G11, G16 and lots more.
What you need to replace is the idler, part number VXP0521, you could just get the tyre for this. I notice the shop over there studio sound electronics sells this, as an IW-2.
What they don't list is another idler which runs off this, it is a VXP0599 which if not replaced will cause a chew later on. Bit more dismantling for this but not too bad.
These are a really solid deck, while not as sophisticated as later decks they seem to last forever and here at least most parts can still be bought.
In this country these machines did not have a switch mode supply, but I have found that replacing the PS caps allowed the tuner to remember stations again and the display to not fade and blink lots.
Cheers
