The best thing I can recommend for you at this point is that you get a reproduction owner's manual and the I&T service manual at the very least.

Oil is traditionally 30W non-detergent, like CaseIH LOW ASH, but getting the engine oil "exactly right" is not crucial. It's probably had 30W non-detergent all its life, so that's the safest bet due to the sludge buildup in the engine. If you start using 10W-40 detergent oil in it now, the sludge will start coming loose and causing all sorts of problems.

I believe you mean SAE90 in the REAR END, not the crankcase... Yeah, that's what's recommended IIRC.
