Best Gearbox oil?

Hey guys

I have a 2014 Toyota Proace which is a rebadged 2007 Dispatch. It has done about 129,000 miles.

I'm going to change my gearbox oil soon and I'm not sure what oil to use. I know it needs to be a 75w-80 but would any gear oil be ok with that spec or is it better to get a certain brand,mineral or synthetic etc?

The Haynes manual recommends Esso EZL848 or Total H6965,neither of which are still available.

I've seen this one which looks to be great for older gearboxes that may have trouble

Would it be ok to use? I don't mind paying extra for quality.

Also does anybody know what size washers I need to replace when I change the oil?

Thanks so much guys
