Rear end identification

Here's the tag off of a '77 rear end. Can you tell me if it's a 9" what gear ratio?

IT's goes something like this

WDM-BC2 7CD
3 00 9 386D

Is there a COVER that bolt to the back of the housing? if so, then you dont have a 9in., If you can remove the whole front center peice and there is a cover welded to the back of the housing then you have the 9in. Not sure about gear ratio. Hope this helps

It does have the welded back plate. And the pinion gear is unboltable from the rest of the third member.
