2.0 Aircooled CU oil type

going to give my 2.0 Aircooled a major service.

Seems to be a lot of conflict regarding oil types just thought I would complicate things and ask what people have used in their motors?

I'm looking to use shell super helix 5w40

Oh where would I find the jack ? :?

Thanks
