I would keep watch on the oil you put in, it may leak out. That's probably why it has grease in it.
If the small plug will come out, you can replace it with a grease zerk. Then get a couple tubes of corn head grease. That's the slang name for grade 0 or 00 grease. It is thicker than oil so it stays in less than perfect seals, but thinner than chassis grease so it doesn't channel away from gears.
If you can get a grease zerk in the fill level hole, then before each use, remove the upper plug and pump it until grease comes out the top. That way you don't pressurize the gear box and blow the seals.
The holes and cracks can be plated and welded. Plating is much stronger than just trying to weld cracks, that rarely works.
Really don't want a guard in front, that will fold the grass over and eventually get bent back and into the blades. Maybe a horizontal hood to deflect anything down.
The chain guards on back can be welded, faster and easier than bolting. Bolt holes may start cracking.
