Don't worry, VW made the box, but it's still a mid-engined version of the Porsche 901, and the gear sets and internals are mostly interchangeable.

Yes the VW logo is mostly just a foundry mark.
The important number is on the bottom; the serial # is on the lowest rib under the diff section. This helps determine the version: 914/6, 914/4 tailshift, 914/4 sideshift.
