Default What trans do I have?

I need help figuring out what transmission I have. I have a 98 ram 1500 with a 5.9, 5 speed. I lost all gears but 4th and there is no identification marker for my transmission.

NV3500 never came stock behind the 5.9. He should have an NV4500.

Not in a 1500. They never offered a 1500 360 manual

Or the owner is mistaken in the engine. Many have stated 5.9 since it was so common compared to the 5.2.
