Default MCJ oil drained out. how to re-fill

the most idiotic thing ever. doing a routine oil change, but instead of changing the oil buy removing the nut from the oil pan, ( i dunno how i got it confused or even went farther down the car) i accidently removed the nut over where it says MCJ OIL and all the oil came out. yea i know very dumb, but need help to fix

so im wondering if thats a bad thing and i shouldnt drive my car. and if its where do i re-fill it and what kind of oil is MCJ. i have an 99 SH, and im thinking its the atts unit, not totally sure. someone suggest it was and its just ATF fluid, but i have no idea where to re-fill and how much

That's the ATTS unit, and it takes Honda automatic transmission fluid. If you look right above the area where the drain plug is ( the one you untightened ), there will be another plug... that is where you fill it at. Fill it until fluid seeps from the fill hole.
