Zongshen RX3: Oil Lubrication System Maintenance

"Noisy" clutch basket seems to be a common issue; I checked mine, and it wasn't really loose, but I re-torqued it anyway (and the nut at the crankshaft end, just in case)
This guy, whom I met personally a week before this incident, reported that he found two plastic teeth in the oil pan after the scheduled oil change. Bike is low milleage (a couple thousand Km). He stopped using the bike, open it, and found the gears like that. After changing them, engine is running fine, and he reported a change in engine sound, more full, less "clunky". That's all I know.
