In addition, I will tell you what happend to me once with my Super H. I drained the rear end to change fluid. On the advice of someone here on the forum, I pushed an extendable pencil magnet in the drain hole and swiped it all around - pulled out pieces of bearing cage and one ball bearing. Uh-Oh! I reswiped severl times and pulled out more bearing cage material. I kept on until the magnet was coming out basically clean. I had quite a pile of metal.
In an abundance of caution I pulled the entire deck off the tractor and found that the particles and ball were the remains of an "old wound" which had already been repaired and that all the bearings were okay.

So, I still gained peace of mind, knowing there were no other loose balls in there and that the bearings were fine.
