If this is a Cushman style chuck, the split is mid body and not at the back plate.
.38Super,
The chuck is a 5", stamped with South Bend logo. The body is one piece, the only seam/split is near the back of the chuck where the spindle thread back plate attaches. There is only one pinion, located approximately mid-body.
The pinion is located in between the scroll and the internal, slightly recessed back plate.
