How much oil should be in the steering box and what type? I am going to rebuild my original also.

A good hi-temp wheel bearing grease is all that you need. Lube the worm gear with gear oil, fill the box with the wb grease, and call it good ....

Just a side note, at re assembly, put some thread sealer on the threads of the large cast end cap.
This will keep that ever appearing drop of oil from forming
