You have inspected the main engine oil sump now and it appear to be low, now move onto the gearbox oil sump level. This box is not temperature dependent, in other words when you pull the inspection plug oil should be at a level that just reaches the lower point of the inspection hole even is the gearbox is cold. I may vary slightly, but you want to keep it full. Now we have reports of many gearboxes found below full after shipment from the factory.
I would suggest that after a few hundred miles you drain this gearbox oil and put in fresh oil to get the break-in swarth out of the gearbox. Do that this summer when the gearbox is really hot. Drain it within a few minutes of shutdown, let it drain overnight.
