Can anyone clarify if it's dexron II oil for the gearbox?

There's a big label on the box telling you exactly what to use, and the advice I have seen is never use anything but what it says in the label.

It's a pain but you need to go underneath and have a look... >:(

The part number on mine looks like it has been superseded?
