Yes, oil is correct...
if it had grease that would sling to the inside of the boot and stay there..
oil will be splashed around enough to keep the joint lubed..
" stuff is different'... very true.... that is why the Factory Shop Manual is important...
The differential oil is sealed in the differential.. ninety wt....
Each half shaft boot has its own oil ... or should....LOL

NOTE... some of the axle shafts have spiral grooves to take that oil back into the differential.
if you swap ends on those you are ' screwing oil ' out of the differential....
