If you end up trying to make one good transmission from two transmissions you'll still need a sealing kit. They are not cheap - and irritatingly they give you enough to do the whole series of transmissions so you end up buying way more than you need. If you can get someone to sell you individual parts then please tell me where you got them! Here in Holland they wouldn't do that - they can only be bothered with the "big sale"...
My guess with the hammer incident is that the mechanic is thinking that the governor is stuck or sticking and perhaps thinks that whacking it with a hammer is the way forward. I advocate removal and cleaning... but hey whatever if you trust the guy that's your business. At least you've psyched yourself up to buy a second transmission so that expense won't come as a shock if it turns out to be necessary.
