Spot on John!
I am waiting impatiently for couple of small parts (new seal for reservoir cap and o-ring for suction tube connector) to arrive at local OPC, then I can get on with filling. Probably arrive tomorrow. New filter is on.
Will use the quick connector, and have a new garden sprayer and tail to fit the connector and ID of sprayer hose (my wife is keen gardener and was very happy to inherit last sprayer I used to fill diff). i should really have just rigged a filler as it's not as if I'll be doing this again for a few years, but if Porsche have provided filler then it feels "correct" to use it, and no risk of any dirt falling into the reservoir (it's a filthy part of the car - took a lot of scrubbing/cleaner to get just some of the grease and grime off the diff housing)
