would anyone know how much oil should I get 1 or 2l

Bog standard gearbox oil, not synthetic and nothing fancy, just change it every time you change the engine oil.

Thats what I was told by the guy who built me a replacement GKN diff and thats what I'll be doing if it ever gets warm enough to get back into the garage again so I can fit it.

Takes just less than 2 litres.
