I'm confused, and I hope you kind folks can help. I recently bought a (cheap/neglected) 1985 240. The rack leaks fluid like a sieve, and thus requires replacement.

The ID plate in the trunk identifies the rack as type 3, indicating ZF. Looking at the rack though, it doesn't match the description of the ZF rack, since it has small openings at the end of the bellows.

Please can someone tell me if this is a ZF rack, and if this would be a suitable replacement:
