Need info on oil for supercharger/water pump

I have tried to find definitive info on the oil used in the SC and the water pump but to no avail. I have found the part number for the SC side but is the oil the same in the water pump side??? Also, can someone tell me how much should be in each side. I think I found that answer a week or so ago but it seemed like an opinion rather than a fact. If anyone has any definitive answers I would appreciate it. This forum is so big that it's hard to distill or find a simple answer sometimes. Many thanks in advance!!
