Default transmission ID: How-to identify L-3 trannys

This is the original ms paint drawing that can the thanked for all of this:


and here are some real world pics for reference.
marked the input sahft:

Then i marked the diff (be sure to mark the inside part that turns)


Grabbed hold of the input shaft and spun it 10 times (be careful not to rub off the mark.) Once the 10th turn was complete I looked with great anticipation and saw this:

dammit, guess its a DX tranny... Oh well, the price was right either way
