5w30, lots of people use Royal Purple, but any decent quality stuff will do, these aren't precious engines.
I forget the part number, personally I just always phone AAS (Advanced Auto Systems) who are up in Newcastle but are a Royal Purple distributor in the UK, Stuart and the guys have worked on Monaros / VXR8s for years, just tell him what you have (LS1 Monaro) and he'll sort you the right filter and right amount of oil delivered next day
