Default Type of rear main on 454

Gday all,

Im thinking of getting a 4wd with a BB in it. It wqas apparently rebuilt less than 5k ago but it has a rear main oil leak.

What type of rear main do the BB have?

What is involved in changing it over?

Thanks

Im not sure at this stage what kind of 454 it is and not sure how to identify the different types either.
