Do you have an aftermarket bearing carrier? If you do there is a grease zerk somewhere on the carrier. Any tube grease that fits your grease gun will work. If you have a stock bearing carrier then there is no way to grease it unless you take the whole rearend apart, and dab some grease on the bearings with your finger. Why are you needing to grease it? Are your bearings going bad?

I'd put some marine grease in it to help against water. But if you know your not gonna be in any water then run regular tube grease as Rooster 300ex said.

Marine Grade or Off-Road Grade Lithium Ball Joint & Bearing Grease. ;)

FYI the stock rearend has sealed bearings.

I think that it is a stock but i had to get the whole rear end redone but i need some for water cause i like to go ride in the rain and water sometimes

Yea that is a good idea to get somekind of marine or Lithium Ball Joint & Bearing Grease, if you ride in water alot.
