Different fluids are designed to withstand different temps, and there are lubrication considerations. Different fluids for different jobs.
You don't put diesel inyour gas car do you? |

Lubricants are to carry heat away from components where friction generates heat, usually bearings. |

Engine oil is designed to run off hot bearings quickly. Gearbox oil is designed to stick to gear faces. You can see this effect by cutting the top off a can of engine oil and gear oil when they're empty and seeing how the different oil run off the can walls. The Engine oil can is very clean after just a few minutes.
As to how they're used depends on the aircraft manufacturer. One oil for the whole aircraft is just a safety feature so people don't put gear oil in the engine.

Is oil in the Fetzer Valve. Otherwise there's not enough oil to lube the ball bearings. |
