Do you mean the plug on the diff cover? If so does it have a Dana symbol? If not it's likely an 8.25...but more then likely at 91 it is a D35..Also if it is the 8.25 you will have a flat spot at the bottom and top of the pumpkin..As far as gear there is usually a tag and if not I forget where but inside there should be a stamp and I am sure someone who knows will chime in on that.

I would bet that it is a D-35. I have one sitting in my garage with that silly rubber plug. There should also be a tag on the cover that will tell you what gears you have. If not, you can pop the cover and divide the number of teeth on the ring gear by the number of teeth on the pinion gear.
