I'd say those are casting numbers for the case. The type number is stamped on the very bottom and will be something like 915/06 (ie: the /06 is for a 1974 911). That type number will be a start to re-ask your question so you can get the stock gear ratio's for the box you have.

edit: check this thread for the photo and additional info on limited slip number (12).
Option code for LSD in a 915?

That's 915/02

1st gear = 11:35 = 3.182
2nd gear = 18:33 = 1.833
3rd gear = 23:29 = 1.261
4th gear = 26:25 = 0.962
5th gear = 29:22 = 0.759

the other available ratios were

4th gear = 27:25 = 0.926
5th gear = 29:21 = 0.724

My eye says that is a 916/02.
If so, that is a VERY RARE and valuable transmission for the 1972 Porsche 916 - the 2.4 MFI 914-6 with a 915 adapted for mid-engine configuration.

Are there any other pictures?

Best,
Grady

I even went to the trouble of flipping that picture over and still think it's possible that the third digit is a 5. It's so marred, it's hard to tell. The guy says it's on ebay, so a link would help a ton!
