thanks for looking everyone , i guess no one is sure ?

so the next question would be if it is busted  is it easier to change diff as a unit or replace full box as unit?

Hi

undo the 5 bolts and have a look

Something is really wrong with the differential. I would take it apart and inspect. Depending on what you find, you might want to reuse your old gearbox if it is better than this one. If you find a lot of metal particles on this gearbox/differential make sure to replace the engine oil pump before installing your old gearbox. When my differential was breaking apart, the metal particles made it into the pump causing gouges, scratches and extra wear that would have reduced the oil pressure.
