Default Is this a Cossie diff?

I just want to be sure if this is a Sierra 2wd Cosworth diff, pls see the picture.

I don't seem to be able to insert a picture here, can anyone help?
"Manage attachment" or "Attachments" don't work at all...?

Thanks, but I am not sure how this works, is this the way or?

How can I display the picture here directly?
Thanks "COLEYST200"! Ohh yes this is in fact mine, not his If this really is a Cossie diff, do they brake/fail like this all the time? I was not using the clutch tbh, just driving in 2nd gear at appr. 1,8 bar out from a roundabout, that's all.

Looks like a normal open diff that. LSD units have the planet gears hidden inside the LSD module

Ahh fair play - I was under the impression that the planet gears were integrated with the LSD module and not sepereate
