Location of gear ratio stamp

Hey guys,
I was looking to see what type differential I had. Some one suggested on here that the gear ration is stamped on the back of the differential. I was under the car yesterday and couldn't find it. Where exactly is it...does anyone have a picture? thanks

2.88 Diff: Use it, or sell it???

The thread above shows several pictures of a differential - in one the gear ratio is circled in red. You do not have to remove the differential rear cover to read the ratio. You can read it from the lower left flange area when under the car even though the cover is on, just clean off this area enough to read the stamping.
