It's pretty common to use the transmission/differential housings as a hydraulic reservoir. In those cases, you want to use whatever HYDRAULIC fluid is recommended by the manufacturer.

Probably not much other than a few additives. The point is that using the exact right oil isn't as critical as some "oil snobs" would lead you to believe. Viscosity is the most important factor, and additives are sometimes important, but your tractor isn't going to collapse on a pile just because you didn't use the exact right oil.
