03 Class V hitch

Could someone with a 03 Superduty with the Ford class V hitch tell me what the max tongue wt is? I know it's tow limit is 12,500 but I'm having a hard time finding the tongue wt. Thanks.

Here you go, right off my hitch:

Weight carrying = 6000 Trailer/600 tongue

Weight distributing 15000 Trailer/1500 tongue

Ford apparently changed the rating on the hitch. Early '03 were 5000/12,500.

Tongue weight is normally 10% or tow weight.

My hitch ('03 X) is 5000/500 and 12,500/1250.
