N range wet brakes - what brake and axle oil?

Hello, I have a FG25N EF17DL with the option wet brake axle.

Can anyone advise what oil goes into the brake tank and what oil goes in the front diff casing?

I have a service manual for the wet brake set up, but every reference it makes to the oil it states "Use manufacturers specified oil" but does not state what that is.

Cheers,

Dan

Fact of the week
Construction of the Sydney Opera House became so costly that the New South Wales government introduced a series of public lotteries to raise the funds needed to continue. A total of 496 lotteries and 86.7 million tickets raised $102 million between 1957 and 1986.
