Also, does this saw use SS only blades or does it use blades readily available from other sources (Lowes/HD/Woodcraft/Rockler/etc.).
Do not worry about 'how low'. Just fill to the hole.* If damage has been done that is a fact. You just need to prevent it.

Any 5" pinless blade should do. Pins can be removed.

* It needs to be 'mounted', not laying on it's back.
