Thanks everyone. I take it I should not be concerned that my 12 bolt housing started out with the 2.56. I'll just be using the housing and axles if they are good. I'll get a new carrier and gear set.
More about the 10bolt bop failure: It was not spectacular or catastrophic and I could still drive the car. It just had a real bad whine, especially in 4th on the gas. Cap is cracked through, but the bolts are intact Otherwise, I didn't dive into it too deep yet. Took the cover off, saw the cracked cap and then pretty much closed up the garage...
