Here are some shots of the unit in question, I only have bad ones of the rear cover (as if the shots of the front are good, lol) but at least it can be seen that it unbolts. I rechecked the chassis service manual that I have which I think is where I got the idea that it was an Eaton. The bigger truck rears are listed as Eaton, the mid size are not named, just generic instructions for service. No pictures in the book that can be identified as any make so Chev must have used whatever was available.

I searched some for the Rockwell H170 but none of the pictures I found look like this pumpkin. They all seem to be much smoother, without all the ribbing. They might have been pictures of other models, in some cases there were many models listed with the same picture.
