Should be a tag on the differential cover.

Default No tag

Is there any other way? I was told about the tag however the truck has about 250k miles and the tag is missing thank you for the reply.

This may help you identify them. Match a differential gasket shape with the shape of the housings on your truck and you'll have your answer.

Default 60-70

Do the Dana 60 and Dana 70 have different gaskets?
