It calls for 10w30 motor oil. You're good.

Motor oil is correct. But surely they didn't charge for a flush on a manual transmission. It's just a drain & fill operation. Say it aint so!

Regardless, you were fortunate. Most shops would fill it full of 90w and send you on your way. Then the transmission fails in another 10,000 miles or so, and you wonder why.
