Default Axle ID and unknown device

Can any of y'all help me identify this axle/diff? It's got ten bolts around the cover. I'm thinking a D44 or D60...not sure though, I didn't find any clear labels on the actual housings. And what is the contraption sticking up on the right side of the diff cover. I appreciate the help fella's.
