Okay, I like your argument, I'll do you one better. I'll reinforce my reasons as to why I stated what I did.
1. Yes everyone doesn't visit Ringo. Eternal Graves are a Ringo custom. However, we have two characters who were never situated in Ringo who knows of Ryuma's appearance, Kawamatsu and Hyogoro.
2. Ryuma is their God. His body was only stolen 23 years ago from the graves, it was preserved. So it would be very unlikely for people to not know what he looked like. And like you said, there should be murals and paintings, because Komurasaki, who isn't even the country's god, had paintings and murals.
Adding on, Zoro fought Ryuma's body which had decayed for the past 23 years without Ringo's preservation, and despite that, the corpse was still in relatively good shape, so imagine when it was still in the Eternal Graves. But even if the whole of Wano doesn't know what he looks like, lots of notable people did, The Shimotsuki's, Kawamatsu, Hyogoro, (Izo and O-kiku very likely) etc... The fact that their is record of his appearance is enough that there is some descriptor for ryuma's appearance, whether it be his body 23 years ago or a painting. He is the country's God after all.
Now for your eternal grave questions.
1. Yes, people of Ringo are bestowed Swords at birth.
2. Yes, their Swords act as Grave Markers when they die. However, their body is also buried with these swords. Ryuma's corpse was stolen with his body, and remember Kawamatsu described the preservation of corpses because of the cold.
Source?
This is me translating, I am the source.
若= Young
旦 = Day/Morning
若旦 = Wakadan (Wake of Dawn) = Young Morning/Dawn
若旦那 =Wakadana(Wake of Dawn) = Young Master
This is also interesting because this is the only use of this specific honorific so far in Wano, I'll have to reread to make sure, and Zoro's the only referred to as such; by an old-timer who spent time with Toki, and is quite crafty with puns.
You can also ask @Aknolagon or @PuckTheGreat to see if they agree with me.
