Default what does a cossie LSD look like

anyone got a pic?
I know what my capri LSD looks like but there's nothing like that in this diff, unless it's a different sort hidden somewhere...
are they smaller or something?
cheers

the ratio is written on a tag on one of the bolts on the rear cover. failing that, it will be written on the viscious coupling in yellow pen
