Is there a reason you want the OEM stuff? I am changing mine out for Redline.

AMSOIL has one in the specific weight requirement we need 80W-90 per the manual.

Redline has one that is 75W-90, close enough.

Whatever you get, make sure its a GL-5 for the differential.

I posted a DIY for the diff and tranny oil changes. The Redline diff oil is excellent and is a worthwhile change. Don't put that crap OEM stuff back in.
