Speed Queen Agitator Broken

Today our Speed Queen agitator showed a partially broken "fin". After cleaning, sanding and utilizing some epoxy resin and glass mat, it's curing until a test run tomorrow night. I plan on ordering a new agitator but for now we should be OK using the machine.

The part appears to be a friction fit, so most likely I will be able to remove it, however, I have a couple of questions.

1. Should I replace water seals beneath the agitator? No leaks have appeared to date, however, I don't want to ruin the transmission.
2. What is the function of the small wire which exits under the cap (dispenser)?
