How many bolts does the shifter cover have?

7 = Munice or Saginaw
9 = Borg Warner

if 7:

The side cover on Muncies are quasi-trapezoidal (they appear to be wider along the top edge than the bottom edge.)

Saginaws are more ovally in shape.

I hope this helps for a lo-tech visual examination

Yeh. That is exactly correct. With a little hump at the top of the center for the top center bolt. Couldn't have described it better Mike.

BTW, if you download the Hurst catalog( www.mrgasket.com) they have a tranny ID section that's not bad. It's a big download though ( 7 megs) so you better be running a cable modem.
