Hi,
According to the Haynes manual, the specification of lubricant depends on which gearbox it is. The two types are distinguished by the colour of the dipstick.
However, the Ford workshop manual makes no mention of this, it simply states that the fluid should be to Ford specification SQM-2C-9007-AA (M2C-33G).
A quick search on Google brings up the following result:

All the best,
Andrew.
