Rear ID-'04 E350

I want to change the fluid in the rear but I can't figure out what type it is. It's a 2004 E350 15 passenger van. No limited slip. The manual lists four or five possible rears, with three types of fluid. How do I ID it?

It's probably a Dana 70HD. Does it have a fill plug in the cover?

No, no fill-plug in the cover, but is is stamped "DANA" with a bunch of numbers. They just don't cross-reference anything at the auto-parts store.

It's probably a BOM, which will tell you everything about it. Post the numbers.

Chances are still good it's a Dana 70.

I was looking at the sticker on the door post, and it has several codes I don't understand. Anyone know what these are?
RC=44 R=9 AXLE=39 TR=E SPR=KKSS

Actually, here's a pic of the sticker.
