Engine oil
Welcome to FTE.
It should be a 5w30 for your engine and year truck. You can find a whole lot of debates on the best brands, weights, and types of oils in the oil & lubrication forum.

Engine oil
The original oil spec on your truck was an API SG rated oil. Best of luck trying to find any as the motor oils of today are much better than that. Any SJ or SL API certified oil will do, the SL is the better of the the two. The 5.8 engine is 351 cubic inches.
