Okay, I've been out fora look. the 5/8" hole, which would be at the very back isn't an issue. It goes all the way thropugh the casting to take anut washer and bolt to carry the weight of the drawbr.
Ahead of that, though, is the 1/2" hole that takes just a bolt that holds the angle for the front of the drawbar. It's located just behind the cap over the bearing on the bull gear, at about the same level as your fill plug. Like I said earlier, I thought this was a blind hole with a bottom, but it's possible, where it is above the level of the pan that it's threaded all the way through or, as was suggested above, somebody wound a bolt in there and poked it through. Poke a broomstraw or something in there and see how far it goes in.
Is this happening on both sides? It might explain why they were dry.
The bolt that goes in there if you have a drawbar is 1-1/2" long. If you're not gonna mount a drawbar, I'd plug the hole with one that's shorter, say 1".

The reason you don't find any decals in your replacement set wit
