Gearbox identification

Hi everyone

Need a little help identifying this gearbox:
gearbox 1
gearbox 1
gearbox 2
gearbox 2
gearbox 3
gearbox 3


Its a 4 speed, bolts to the CVH engine, has ford marked on the side, the splined shaft for the clutch plate has 20 splines (if i counted correctly) and looks to be an inch wide.

The problem I'm having is I need to find a clutch plate that fits this and will go inside the clutch already on the CVH engine.

Anyone got any ideas and/or know good sources of ford clutch plates?

Thanks,
Chris

i think it might be! can't really see the top cover in the link, but the rusty pattern on top seems to follow the pattern on your top cover
