You fill the Differential until the oil starts to come out the single hole you are using to fill it. This has been my style for 25 years. Hasn't failed yet.
Some Diffs have a seperate drain hole and a fill which is about midway up on the case or cover plate...So don't fill it via rthe drain hole Okie dokie.
If you want specifics it should say in your spec section of the owners manual

It depends on type of vehicle, fill it only enough so when you insert your little finger in fill hole it barely touches the tip of your finger, if you fill it until it runs back out you run the risk of blowing an axle seal from too much pressure it will build up especially if vent is clogged up.

Depends on the size. Most trucks now are 3 to 4 quarts.
Cars might be 2 to 3 quarts.
F-600 will be around 3 gallons

remove the plug and stick your pinkie finger in the hole. Fill with 90w gear oil until you feel oil at just the bottom of the fill hole.

Insert oil through filler hole,when it starts to pour out that is when it's full.
