Default Changing oil in 2004 Yamaha F150 4 stroke motor

So...I always change my own oil and gear lubricant. I always use the Siera brand oil. I purchased a gallon of 10w-30 Premium blend 4 Stroke oil and another quart as well. I also purchase a quart of the Premium Blend marine gear lubricant. The containers look very similar. I changed the oil and put the gallon of oil in and then the quart, but when I went to change the Gear lubricant, I realized that I had put the quart of gear lube in the oil reservoir instead of the oil. The quart of oil was full and the quart of gear lube was empty.

My question is do I need to drain and through out the oil from the motor? I have not ran it yet. It basically has 4 quarts of oil and 1 quart of gear lube. I don't want to risk damage to my motor so I will drain it if needed. Just want someone's opinion on whether this will hurt or not.

Thanks
Marty
