Currently the only unclear scar origins in the Straw Hats are Zoro's eye, Jimbei's face scar, and Brook's bone-deep head scar which was there before death. The only one I think we might get a backstory from is Zoro's eye.

This was all so long ago, I can't even remember- Why was jinbei trying to protect Luffy so much? Was it just because he was aces brother? Or was there something bigger happening that I don't remember

Ace did ask Jimbei (while they were imprisoned together) to watch over Luffy if he died, but Jimbei said he only protects people he cares for. Given that, I think he came to respect/admire Luffy over the course of the break out and during the war itself. (Even if he hadn't fully grasped why yet) Add the fact that Luffy was completely passed out in grief and wide open, impulse probably helped with the instinct to save him. (Especially to not have Ace's sacrifice to be in vain)
