How can I tell

How can I tell which rear end I have. I know I have an Austin Healey rear end in my Daimler SP250 as the previous owner has stated so. However we don't know from which model and I need to have some of the brake parts replaced (all the emergency brake items are all missing). Also, I would to restore it to the correct finishes (black, silver etc).

Thank you.
 
Here (in a chaotic album) you can find a lot of photos that can help on correct rebuilding of E brake system

PAINT there are two thinking schools- one for all black rear axle- my opinion is that original rear axle have the front in aluminium NOT painted
