Default Please help me identify this GMC rear

I think it is a Dana 70HD but I cant find the markings to prove it. It is on a 93 p3500 shool bus chassis, 14000lb rear with dualies. Any help is much appreciated. I want to get the ring/pinion swapped for better highway mileage.

Thanks all for the help. It is for sure a 10 bolt cover. One other thing I tried was doing a search for rear end parts by year on O'Reilys and rock auto, they seem to think it is a Dana 80 but 10 bolts tells me otherwise.
