Please help identify this LSD

Hey folks. I have been trying to figure out what this differential is compatible with. Any ideas? Tests pure, but otherwise I have no idea what it is from

Doesn’t look like a Porsche and no idea on brand.

I would pair it with a nice cabernet sauvignon.

Well, I can confidently declare that it is not Orange Sunshine or Mr Natural Blotter, but that's probably not much help.

If Matt Monson doesn't know then it's unlikely anyone else on the forum will, unfortunately.

Regarding pairing, personally I'd go with a nice dry german reisling, perhaps a Maximin Grünhäuser Abtsberg. The flinty minerality will nicely offset the metallic notes of the LSD.

And if aged long enough (7-10 years), it may develop an extraordinary petroleum nose that will beautifully complement the differential oil.

Look for markings. Could be part numbers, settings, etc. may offer a clue.

I have a KAAZ in my 915 and it's got a machined surface, not cast.
