Royal Purple does, of course, sell a GL5 gear oil although it's listed as a marine product. 
But it's not for the gearbox, nor is any GL5 oil.
It's all in the owner's manual. Differential uses SAE 90 hypoid gear oil GL5 or GL6. The SAE grade has changed since our cars were new. I think 150 grade is closer to original spec.

Amsoil MTF seems to be hard to get atm. There was a US seller on eBay a month or so ago, but they're all sold out now. Only a UK seller atm; but shipping is too much.
Is Royal Purple MTF any good? I noticed LHT (a shop on YT) uses/praises it. Is Royal Purple better or worse than Honda MTF? (I have Honda MTF in my car currently; but I need to change the MTF soon).

Or to save on shipping, call a few independent AMSOIL dealers in the area and see if they have some in-stock. Retail stores might have higher prices.

I use Amsoil Manual Synchromesh Transmission Fluid 5W-30 and Severe Gear 75W-140.

I buy Amsoil products on-line from the Amsoil web site and it ain't cheap but its reliable and the shipping is fast.
