I worked a a tech for local Honda/Acura dealership for about 6 years. All we ever used in a m/t was 10w30 oil. You'll be fine if you haven't changed it . Just refill untill it runs out of the hole.

Honda MTF IS 10w30 with additives included.
10w30 would be fine, but I like using what Honda recommends...

You can ride it 1/4 qt. low for a day, no big deal. That's what I would do and go get another quart of the MTF so you're not mixing stuff.
