I think I would first determine what tranny it came from the factory with before I started looking for one,as I belive you could get a C6 or a E40D in 91.
Does your shift selector have the o on it, if it came with a C6 it will not have the ecm for the E40D. It sounds like you have a can of worms on your hand, run a vin check and see what it started out as it may not even been diesel originally. I can't imagine why someone would have removed the filter for it. Can you post pictures of the engine.
Have you had it running at all.

I have not had it running yet, I am planning on working on it all weekend, I put the right filter in there and hooked up the fuel lines as I thought was right, I am just not sure how the return and bypass lines need to be.

I'm not up on auto's at all but I think all the overdrives had the o on the shift selector.
Some fords had an overdrive lockout button on the dash, not shure what models had this though.
If it didn't come with an overdrive the C6 is what it would have had, but you have to get one from a diesel no gasser tranny will bolt up.

Ok not sure how to tell then maybe number dummy will chime in.
The diesel C6 and the E40D have the same bolt pattern no ford that I know of has a single bolt on the top, Chevy did this on manual 3 speeds for a couple years made for some funny stories.

Did the vin decoder say that it started life as a diesel.
You need to start a new thread to find out how tell if it had a C6 or E40D I'm sure the wiring will be different so you should be able to tell by the wiring harness on the van, but like I said I know nearly nothing about autos. Start a thread on autos, there is some guys on here that will know what to look for.

Do you have a tag on the drivers side door rear pillar that has a trans code on it.
It will look like the one on page 2 of the attached pdf file link.
The file I have attached is for the 85 model year, but I think I have a more recent one somewhere.
Looks like G would indicate C6.
And I do think all E4OD had E as the identifier.
