I don't recognize this axle housing... and wondered if any of you guys can I.D. it:

It's installed on a 1950ish Jag XK-120 Special, but I don't believe it's original to the car.

Look up Salibsbury 2Ha housing. They were found in early jags and had perfromance parts offered.

Thank you! Exactly what I needed, and your tip (2Ha) gave me the right Google search term to find a bunch more.

The upgrade is a Salisbury 4Ha, 7Ha and even a 8Ha? These are all English Built Dana rear axles. I know the Salisbury 4Ha is a Dana 44. The others I dont know but the 2Ha could be the 20 or 35 Dana? Good Luck!

Looks a little more rounded than Dana 25,27 or 30 which all use the same cover. That doesn't mean the internals aren't the same. Here is a picture of the American Dana 25,27 or 30 cover:
