https://drs.faa.gov/search for Airworthiness Directives, which are regulations from the FAA. You could search on "Lycoming" or whatever.
Otherwise, Lycoming technical publications are at https://www.lycoming.com/contact/knowledge-base/publications. I would think that anything serious enough to warrant an AD from the FAA would also show up somewhere in Lycoming's Knowledge Base.

I have used this service before. It simplifies the research and organization of ADs. All sort of appliances that are attached to aircraft may have ADs; radios, mags, etc. I am not saying they are mandatory, but if you want to know about all ADs for your aircraft this is a nice tool. It is a subscription service.
I am not affiliated with the company.

I have thought the same thing for years.
Those services are so expensive. $49 per month. Best thing I did was hook up with a local A&P and have him run the report every year for me using his account. He charges me one cold draft unit.

ADs
I downloaded every AD, SL, etc dated after my engine was born. Opened each and ran a search for both model and serial. You're right. It was a huge pain.
You would think Lyco would offer a service. Pay an amount to have them run the model and serial against their database and send a USB with all pertinent documents. Seems like the Risk Managers would like to eliminate some liability. What a concept.
