"sounds like you are serious about doing the DIY stuff correctly, so pick up a service manual for your engine/drive. generic Seloc book is "ok", an original OMC service manual can usually be found on eBay for around the same cost.
Best oil depends on your local climate, there is a chart in the manual to refer to, but straight 30 weight engine oil or a 20W50 or 25W40 multigrade is generally what OMC recommended for summer weather boating. Quantity is somewhere around 5 quarts with filter."
