80w 90 Gear Oils: Are they all the same?

Both my Yamaha kicker leg and my Volvo stern drive leg take 80w 90 oil. So do I need to use two different types of oil: the expensive Volvo stuff for the Volvo leg and Yamalube for the kicker?
Thanks
 
What volvo outdrive do you have? We have been running penzoil 30wt in the 280 with no issues. A quart of yamalube for the kicker isnt all that expensive and keeps my warranty happy.
