Trans oil - hope I ordered correctly - please verify

Decided to change the trans oil while the 986 is on the Quickjack with the rear bumper and wheels off (still killing time waiting for the Brombacher). Spent the last 3hrs scouring the web for info on the 6spd drain/fill locations and the how-to for drilling the access hole in the pan. I think I have it all straight but I just want to confirm the I ordered the correct trans oil:

According to the Sunset site, original part number 999.917.546.00 was replaced by 000.043.305.49. 000.043.305.49 is listed on Sunset as ‘Genuine Porsche’ but no indication that it is a Shell product. This is what I ordered.

I also found the Mobil PTX but did not order it as some posts indicate it is for the PDK cars - 000.043.204.20 MOBILUBE PTX 75W 90 (000-043-204-20-SP) and it is not listed as ‘Genuine Porsche’.

Did I order correctly for my 2004 986s 6spd?? Thnx in advance for your replies
