Default Broken Gear on New Home XL-II and feed dog issue

Hi,

I am wildly out of my depth but I started dismantling and now I can't really go back. I have a New Home XL-II. Great machine, but the feed dogs weren't pushing fabric through and then I started dismantling and found this broken gear. I have other part of the gear, and I tried to superglue it together but it wouldn't fit quite right after that. So my two (kind of 3) questions:
  1. Is there any way I can repair this gear? Any way to replace it other than getting a part off the exact same machine? And my kind of second question: what does this gear do? Is it essential?
  2. Best guesses at fixing the feed dog question? Is this related to the broken gear?
