From a mentor's point of view:
1) You should come clean. I'd rather have a student make a mistake and offer a solution than hide mistakes. We all make mistakes and learn from them.
2) Your mentor may want to order spares, or may even have spares on the way.
3) Your team can experiment with the 'spare' gearbox from the broken motor.
4) Are you sure your mentor doesn't read the forums and know already?
