Transmission oil options for 911E

I am having a bit of a problem locating locally 90 SAE gear oil as called for in the manual.

Are there any options? Is 80W-90 sufficient ? What does hyploid mean?

Please advise.

Thank you.

The easiest SAE 90 oil to find would be Honda Motorcycle/Marine SAE 90 gear oil. The car dealers don't usually have it (or even know about it), but the bike and boat dealers should have it.
