Default 48" mower opinions

Found a 48" mower for sale that I have questions about, in relation to a QA mower of the same size. It looks like it's a pin on deck- how difficult is it to convert it to a QA? Is the front cast piece the same between the two? Do the deck hangers interchange somewhat easily? Also, I see it's missing the belt shields (no problem, I have parts on a QA mower) can those be bolted up without making new holes in either the deck or the shields? It looks like it hasn't been used too much as the baffles are still in tact on the underside. I've never seen a guard like what's on the discharge side. Are there plates added to the frontside of the deck? Not sure what those are. Having not seen it in person I'm searching some opinions and knowledge before making a trip and being disappointed in buying something wrong.

Thanks
