While installing a new prop, I notice some small cracks around the mount that holds the drive shaft. They do not seem very deep but a few are slightly raised enough that I can feel them with my fingers. Is this something to be concerned with?

That could have happened when you damaged your original prop, probably just minor flex of the fiberglass, most likely just cracks in the gelcoat, I wouldn't worry too much unless they started spreading out more
