Should be ok mate its like putting a fwd drive battery in a commodore shouldn't hurt it at all as long as it physically fits in.

it wont hurt having a little more capacity on the battery, as long as it fits your fine

be an idea to confirm its charging right tho, as that can lead to premature battery failure

should be fine, my gpx says 6mh and I have an 8 in there....just getting the bugger to fit was a little tight but it goes great guns. Tough as an ox my battery is...not bad for a $30 supercheap jobbie.
