Rear Axle Recognition - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Does anybody recognise this rear end.
It is fitted to my 1952 3100 pick up but I'm sure its not standard.
I have jacked one wheel up and calculated a final drive ratio of about 3.08 ( I believe standard is 4.11). The bolt (Lug?) pattern appears to be 5 on 5" PCD.
The only markings I can see on the outside are cast in the main housing and are "Z" and underneath "E14".
Any help pointing me in the right direction would be appreciated. I need to order brake parts and possibly half shaft oil seals and its a long way to sunny Yorkshire if they are wrong.
