IDK about the autos, but on the manual transmissions there is a label on one side of the case that identifies what type of trans it is. I would find it hard to believe the autos don't have something similar on them.

Well now that wasn't very helpful of Ford now was it. The only other way I could think of to identify what it is would be to use the VIN code to check. I know I have seen on here and on TRS VIN code keys.
