visual difference in 7.25" 8" front diff

Can anyone post a pic or explain an easy way to tell the difference between a gen 1 7.25" and 8" low pinion front diff for a pajero ( to a misti novice ) . Would be most appreciated .
Even if someone can tell me the overall diameter of the diff head housing of each .

Thanks
