Sorry, I don’t know the info that you are looking for, hopefully someone will help you.
There was a thread about the different ratios for different years a week or two ago, it’s not easy but if you persist with the search feature you might find it. If I calculated the ratios that you have correctly they are all very close so (other then knowing what the original was from) they all would work.
50 says 51/13 is a 3.92 ratio
51 says 47/12 is a 3.92 ratio
50 rear end says it should be 43/11 is a 3.90 ratio
