You can order Corn head grease from John Deere on line pretty cheep. Or you can get snapper lawn mower grease, it's "00" but probably a bit more money, you should use the same amount as for required capacity. Get your axle leak fixed!
I just would not make assumptions where so many moving parts are involved. It really needs to be filled to capacity with lubricant, whether it's locked in or not. You can use it with the "00" in a pinch if you get stuck in the mud or something. But you need to get your axle fixed so you can fill it too, and have it maintain capacity so you can operate it at sustained speeds. But I guess you know that and just need to buy a bit of time.... but only a bit please!
