Ring gear stamp

Ring gear stamp
I have an unknown front axle because of reasons we aren't going to discuss.
The differential cover is 10 bolts.
On the short axle shaft it reads: .. .29 8 C5 6100.. ("." are unreadable numbers)
differential the numbers are C38581 which I understand is the model number
On the ring gear I found
12 5 78 Dana 338050 A3050 45-11 563 (563 is upside down compared to rest of numbers)
From my understanding that means December 5, 1978 is the production date and it has 4.10 gears (which I have confirmed by counting teeth.)
The other numbers I do not understand and have been trying to do internet research.

There are about 23 different trucks that have the B.O.M. (Bill of Materials) number starting with 6100.. That's GM, Chrysler/Dodge and Jeep. I'm assuming it's a Ford front end?? Assuming it's a Ford (with coil spring wedges), it's out of a 79 F-150 pick up. If it has spring perches, and it's Ford...it's out of a 79 F250. I know GM pumpkin is on the passenger side. I'm not sure about Dodge or Jeep. If it has spring perches....could be Dodge W100or W200. Jeep could be J10, J20, Grand Wagoneer or Grand Cherokee. (All from late 70's or early 80's)
