Default what tranny oil can i use besides MTF?

I'm replacing my axels today on my 96 DX w/ 5 speed, and i'm assuming some of my MTF will leak out when I pull the axels. Problem is, honda parts dept isn't open on sundays so I can't buy more MTF and I work tomorrow morning. So i'm wondering whats safe to put in? I'm thinking of maybe trying to catch the MTF in a clean container and put it back in, since I replaced it less than 15,000 miles ago, it's still fairly new. I've heard people putting 5w30 in, but that makes me a little nervous. What about Synthetic oil, is there a good synthetic I can put in that Napa or Autozone might carry? Also does anyone remember off hand how much the tranny holds? Thanks.
