On my 04 sportsman I noticed a fill plug and a drain plug on the recoil starter/ flywheel cover. I went through deep water and water got into that area. I removed the cover to drain and noticed rust starting to form. Can I put oil in there to lube things up. What are the plugs for?

I would spray some brake clean in there to get rid of any moisture then try to seal the area to try to prevent water from entering.
