try sullivans garden machinery they should be able to source these parts for you. Their contact info can be found on their website http://www.sullivansgardenmachinery.co.uk

There aren't any after market decks for this but it does appear that the original part has been superseded by a replacement so maybe this has solved the problem (see link below).

although you could get cheaper and maybe worth a quick search to compare prices.

If it is not leaking there should be no need to add oil, if it does not have an external resivoir you would fill throught the filler and leave a 1/4" air gap to allow for expansion.
