Default Replacing lower unit lube in 1992 Force 90 HP outboard

Does a milky color to the old lube mean that I have water in it?
Wouldn't the water separate from the lube?
I replaced it with Sierra Premium Gear Lubricant. Is that o.k.?
Please email me if you can help me.

Yes it would mean you had water in the lube. It really does not matter
what lube you use, until you replace the seals, you will continue to
leak water and water and oil are not a good lubricant for your lower
outboard lower unit.
