the correct ratio is 50:1 under no circumstances make the mixture richer. if you build up carbon under the rings on this motor severe engine damage will result. use a quality outboard oil(preferably from an outboard manufacturer) oil is cheap compared to costs from fouled plugs or engine damage.I have 25 + years in recreational and comercial outboard use. quality oil will save you money!!

The correct mix is 50:1=a pint of oil to six gallons of gas or about 2.5-3 oz of oil per gallon of gas.
Use whatever brand you want to use. Some people will only use Quicksilver. I use the walmart brand myself. It's done me a fine job for two years.
It's not labeled with a weight. It's just outboard engine oil.

your outboard requires a 50:1 fuel oil mixture. Most two cycle outboards require this.

they will run ok with up to a 50:1 ratio, but i usually mix mine at 40:1 this leaves a little room for error, & won't hurt anything..
