I bought this rear end out of an 02 M6 Camaro Z28 is there anyway to tell if this is a 3 or a 4 channel rear end?

Pressure wash it. Then take anything like methyl hydrate and a scotchbrite pad and clean it then pressure wash again. Try to find a black rust primer and go to town.

I had a spare 10 bolt that looked just like yours. It came out pretty decent this way....
