I'm working on the theory that there are no stupid questions here.

As part of routine maintenance I'll be replacing the differential cover gasket on my 1968 Amazon 131. Which oil / fluid should I use to refill it? It has overdrive; does this make any difference?

Brookhouse states SPICER DIFF COVER GASKET. FITS ALL AMAZON & P1800 MODELS, but they have a foot note which advises (YOU MUST CHECK WHICH MAKE OF AXLE YOU HAVE FITTED). Is this a contradiction if it fits ALL Amazons?

Thanks.
