Part personal experience in an H1, and more importantly the opinion of Kevin Cameron.
"Mine is a long and sad tale", said the mouse.
"Indeed it is", said Alice, looking at the mouse's tail.

1st and 5th gear shot, heavy pitting on ATF. Switched to the recommended 10W40 initially, then 75W90 gear oil which I've used in all my engines ever since. Hey presto- the gears remained pristine.
More important- to me at any rate- is Kevin Cameron's opinion and advice.
