from what i remmeber your right that is a h42
the h41 has a cover on the pass side of the box and the reverse switch goes into top plate at the rear of the top cover horizontal not vertical like the h42
the h41 was also the 4 speed for the early J30transfer same as the 3 speed its not a split case like the one in your pic
and the cover your talking about is the transfer in that pic

ive now checked above with factory manual and its correct

Strictly speaking, it should be a H41 gearbox, only the U.S got the H42, which has a higher 1st gear than the H41.
