What exactly am i looking for in the trans fluid?

Not all automatic 4Runners had the hydraulically control transfer cases. Some had a regular chain drive case. If your transfer case and a neutral selection, then you do not have a A340H but the A340F. Besides the door tag this is another way you can tell:

Interior shifter for the A340H, notice no NEUTRAL selection on the T-case
