I don't think that you have thought this out well. If you want to know if one gear or all your gears are are damaged, you need to start looking at the bottom of the rear frame (tub). First step: drain the oil and look for fragments. There will always be some trash down there. Experience will tell you how much is too much. Size of the individual frags will also reveal info.

The PTO cover removal will only give you visual access to the axle part of the transaxle. Take off of the belt pulley or the plate that takes its place to view transmission.

If you don't want to make or buy gaskets, use the stuff that comes in a tube.

If you can't find tractor fluid at TSC, somebody in charge of inventory is not on the ball. Either that or their re-order program is messed up. A good autoparts store, even in NYC, will have it as well. I have even seen it in discount or consumer type autopart outlets. In some parts of the country I'll bet you can get it at Walmart.
