Are these cracks a concern? If not can I just replace the seal or do I have to but the whole thing for 200 bucks a side?

If it's a friction surface, as it appears to be, polish it up with a scotch bright. It looks like it's part of the brakes. Those are heat checks, nothing to be concerned about. Same as a flywheel, rotor or drum. As long as the bearing cup bore is good and holds a seal tightly you're in business.

Wash everything spotless. You should see a number stamped in it. I can make out part of it in your picture. It looks like a national seal.

Take seal to local parts store they should be able to cross it. And if Case dealer told you that you couldn't get seal separately then they are lying. When you go back together with brake plate be sure and cover stub shaft with something so seal won't roll or get cut.
