How do I attach the chain to the winch drum?
There are corresponding holes on the opposite side of the drum. What's the purpose of different sized holes?

Guessing here - different sized chain that can be affixed to it. Run a bolt through the holes and through the chain link is one way.

Extra hole is for access to flaten out the rivit that holds the chain onto the drum .
NOT a pop rivit but a real heat & smash rivit .
The head of the bolt restricts the ritation of the drum as it hits the housing
Just my opinion on how to attach the chain .
