You need regular cheap 80w90 gear oil, MB filled it with industrial weight SAE 90 gear oil which you wont find easily.
SAE 80W90 GL5 regular cheap gear oil is the best for these. - All these diffs are hypoid (angular contact gears) and your small one would take about 1.1 qt of it - use a pump to fill it. as usual remove filler first then drain bolt.
