NV4500 most likely. and the tail housings are swappable with the right parts.
Sounds sketchy to me though.

D-350s ARE 2wd
W-350s ARE 4x4

So if it IS a D-350 it should NOT have a T-case

'91.5-'93 D-350s came with an overdrive A-518 auto transmission.
Sounds like that is what your looking at

Well, unless they did the conversion bellhousing or switched over to a complete 2nd gen setup, I think it about has to be a Getrag, just a 2WD version.

Can you get us a reasonably clear picture of it?

Yeah hard to tell from a description. A pic will nail it down for you exactly.

Not a lot of different trannies available for the cummins. It has to be an A518, or a 47RH/RE, or a Getrag, NV4500, NV5600, or maybe a G56? But since those last two are 6 speeds I doubt it.
