When you filled the gearbox with oil did you put the lever in all gears for a few seconds then recheck the level it could just be low on oil ?

If the prop broke, it was either lack of grease in the UJ's or a seized VCU. If the VCU is seized, a diff may have failed or maybe both after suffering transmission wind up.
You would be better off posting in the Range Rover section.
