Look at the transfer cover right behind the radiator. If it has an obvious shape as if covering three round gears, larger in center smaller at top and bottom, then you have the gear transfer. If you have a wire bale/spring holding a round steel cover in place on a cover that is shaped to cover sprocket top and bottom with chain around [ sort of an oval shape ] then you have the chain transfer. Changing the oil to see what drains out is a good idea, the later trans have a magnetic plug that shows the gear chunks if thats what is happening, I am not sure if the gear transfer trans has such. My experience with a gear transfer years ago was that it was pretty noisy and the young guy that bought it from me blew the tranny, but that may be youth driving, not the tranny's fault. [ I was very uncomfortable with him driving the car, but he had cash in hand.] Good luck.
