Rebuild kit for Cam Gear manual steering? 200

My '80 DL has manual steering by Cam Gear. It's a little clunky and I want to repair it.
VolvoWorld (with whom I have never done business) lists several of what are described as "Steering rack rebuild kit[s], for CAM rack." According to their info one must determine which kit is needed by an identifying number somewhere on the rack. The only number I can find is on the pinion housing and it bears no resemblance to the numbers given by VolvoWorld. I will have to look elsewhere on the rack for another number.

I guess it shouldn't be too hard to find but does anyone know where on the rack this number might be located?

Has anyone had any dealings with VolvoWorld? All I know is that they are in Canada.

Does anyone know if such a kit is available elsewhere? I can't find anything listed at the usual places.

I intend to contact VolvoWorld and ask what parts the kits consist of but I would like to be able to properly ID the rack first.
