I'm stupid apparently... I found the drain hole on the gear box but can't find the details on how to fill/overfill it? Says .75L of lube but no hole looks like easy access... Help?

If you’re staring at the case look for the dipstick on the right hand side, that’s where you fill it. There’s a coolant hose that runs vertical from the thermostat housing, sometimes it’s tucked just a little behind it. They call for 8.5 oz ish or 250ml.

I ended up filling through the dip stick hole and checking 6+ times to full... Thanks!

Yes, through the dipstick hole. It's a pain to get at. I ended up taking a little plastic funnel and trimming it until it fit around the hoses and such.
It is now my specific gear oil filler funnel. had the sled 10 years and change the gear oil every season just like engine oil.
Having the oil a bit warm helps with it flowing in as well
