You would want to use “lo” here for non-gender specific objects, and masculine objects and animals. “Le” when refering to a boy or man, and la for all else.
I would not try to verify this online because the internet has become a sludge pit at a waste processing plant. read a spanish book, ask a spanish speaker, or read spanish subtitles (assuming the writer writes what the people say and not what the writer thinks they mean”.)
Most assume “le” is not a direct object likely because they were taught this to make it “easier” and in brazen hubris the horde of ill-informed smear their **** across the english speaking world.
Anyways, le, if a direct object, usually has a prepositional phrase to clarify it is a direct object….which to me kind of defeats the purpose of using a direct object pronoun, but it depends on context.
A prepositional phrase would be “a Mark” or “a mi mama”.

Lo, la
Use these words for “it” when the object is having an action done to it. Do not jse it when the object is performing an action or when you are describing an object. This is a matter of direct vs indirect objects. In English, we use the same word for both. Other languages use separate words. Lo and la are used when “it” is an indirect object.
I saw it. Yo lo vÃ.
He left it. Èl lo dejó.
I understand it. Yo lo entiendo.
In these sentences, the subject is doing something to “it”. Also note that lo comes before the action.

This needs corrected here and many other place.
Direct object for “it” hould be “lo”or “la” but “le” can also be “it” as an indirect object, as well as “him/her”.
Additionally, “le” IS also a direct object for “him”, but for masculine objects.
Whereas it has become excusable in some dialects to use “lo” for direct object “him” there should not be an option, in MANY of the other sentence construction examples, for both “le” and “lo”, when a masculine direct object is needed!
It is either always “lo”, both (but both options NOT appear), or always proper grammar.
Note option 1 sets people up for failure IRL, but what is currently in place makes it difficult for most to learn to begin with.
PLEASE fix this.
