LSD Indentification?

I will be looking at a 1998 ITR that I am interested in buying. The owner informed me that the transmission was replaced under warranty by an Acura Dealership. What can I look for to verify it is a ITR trans? Would the Vin plate on the original transmission be transferred over to the new unit?

first, it should have this if replaced by an Acura dealer: http://img207.imageshack.us/my.php?image=rdotng6.jpg
To verify the LSD you would have to pull both axles out and look thru the holes- if you can see thru then good, if not then bad.

I believe it's on the back of the tranny near the LSD. That black plastic cone in the picture above is where the speed sensor goes.
