I don't know for certain that it's a ZF, but that's what I remember my dad telling me. It does however seem perfectly plausible.
Pretty cars Jono! My dad's Spider was silver, faded and dull, and had huge black rubber federal bumpers. Lots of great memories of that car. One that comes to mind is when I was in the army, stationed at a base not far from Dad's house, and he came to pick me up for a weekend away. The gate-guard at the base had no idea what kind of car it was, and wrote in the 'make' space on the pass the first thing he saw on the car's back-end: INIEZIONE.

I'll ask mate who's and Alfa specialist, from what I've seen of ZF boxes in Escort BDA's they are very different boxes.
The LSD differentials in the Alfa's were made by ZF and used clutch plates to control slip, the open Alfa diffs were not, the race car I had used the ZF type for 4.1 and 4.3, the 4.55 however is totally different dimensionally, so we made a spool centre for the diff, loved it.
