The square, or diamond shaped front axle is a clue that it is an International A, industrial version, not a Farmall. Does it also have a foot throttle?
The difference between a Farmall A and an Industrial A is only the front axle, the foot throttle and an "International" sticker instead of a "Farmall" one, so it is really not much different at all.
The transmission and differential share lube oil. There is a small pipe plug on the left hand side of the transmission, down low behind the left side brake rod. Fill the transmission until oil comes out that hole. It will not take a lot, 5 or 6 quarts at the most. I use 80-90 gear lube in them, but 80-140 or straight 90 wt should be OK too.
A certain amount of whine in road gear is normal because it has straight cut gears. I can"t listen to yours, so there is no way to determine whether what yours has is normal or not. I often put a can of STP in the transmission, it helps a bit with the gear whine.
Don"t forget to put gear lube in the final drives too. I use the same lube in them, including a bit of STP too. The fill/check is the pipe plug on the front, inboard side of each side final drive that has about a 9/16" square indent in it.
