The cap is the first pic will reveal the cleanable oil filter and spring. Just clean the filter with a blast of WD-40, and make sure there are no holes. When you reinstall it, the rubber end of the filter goes in first, followed by the spring and then the cap.

The caps in the second pic are for turning the crankshaft for setting the valves. The large cap on the vertical surface reveals the nut that you turn, and the top cap on the horizontal surface reveals the marks on the flywheel.

The engine and transmission share the same oil; this is referred to as a unit motor. When you add oil through the dipstick hole, it flows to the transmission and the engine.
