Default what colour is gearbox oil / diff oil (genuine ford)

right, i shit my gearbox at santapod central day and as im having a few refreshments to the car, its been in the garage, gathering dust and costing me money

i started it the other day to test a few things out and yes, the box was as noisy as fook.. still driveable... but like a cement mixer

now, i rolled it forward at the end of the day and woohoo..... fluid all over the floor of the garage... now im a bit worse for wear after last night so cant remember the colour.. but its deffo NOT mobil 1 .. i think it was greeny ish

has the 3rd gear cog thats been swimming around the box, finally caught the inside of the box and removed a large chunk? or did i run over a particulary large slug!

MT75 gearbox and transfer box oil will generally be red/pink, diff oil is standard EP/Hypoid oil, so will just be... oil colour.. brownish .
