My speedo cable apparently is creating all the noises when i take off according to the guy at subaru, he said, the cable could be rusted and u hear certain knock noises, and when u take of the crack noise maybe be coming from that cable. So i looked on this website
https://www.subarugenuineparts.com/oe_parts_cat.html
and i see the cable assy for the auto is 22.09 US is this correct?? i thought someone here said it cost 67US , just want someone to verify im looking at the right part. Its the cable that goes from the tranny to the speedometer. Thanks.

There appear to be differences between FWD/AWD.
There are also differences between LHD/RHD, but I'm assuming yours is LHD.

I am not sure about the auto, but the manual speedo cable has two parts. The first is the cable going from the cluster through the firewall and out to a few inches above the transmission. The second is an adapter that the first connects up to on one end -- the other end screws into the transmission.
My adapter piece broke in the middle of a 3000-miles cross-country drive. In addition to being a PITA to remove the old one and screw the new one in, the adapter piece is ~$46. I managed to crossthread the new adapter when screwing it in -- it is plastic and very hard to get it started straight. I had to tear the old one apart to get it out, because the screw-in plastic piece just flexed when I used a crescent wrench on it.
My G20's speedo cable was actually a much easier install (although I did have to remove the intake) and was cheaper to boot ($~25 IIRC).

It doesn't really matter about MT or AT. The speedo cable design (1 piece 2 piece) changed through the model years.
There really shouldn't be any difference, and you should be able to run whatever. I never swapped cables when I did my tranny swap.

So what i ask is that im looking at the actual speedometer cable assy for $22 is that the correct part? Or is it a PART of the speedo cable?

That's probably the whole thing.
I don't have my parts book to check....if it's the one piece assembly, it should be the whole thing.
