As far as I'm aware all the IIB FC's that came out of Solihull had ENV axles front and rear.
The main difference between the FC axles and those fitted to 109 as fitted on One Ton models from about 72-76, along with other Heavy Duty applications such as armoured cars.
All were fitted with the 3 inch shoes and 11 inch drums on the front, and standard six cylinder brakes (2 inch shoes and 11 inch drums) on the rear.
All leaf spring Land Rovers (apart from the 101) had 4.7:1 diffs, the 101 had 5.54:1 diffs.
If you want to swop a 3.54:1 diff from a coil sprung axle into a series one it is possible. You need to swop the entire diff carrier (everything that comes out when you undo the bearing caps) along with the diff pinion, which requires a new crush tube between the bearings.
101 and Series Crownwheel and pinion are interchangeable without the diff carrier.
No need for reverse cut gears, the factory didn't bother.
That covers most of your questions.
