Question I can't find what model this steering box goes to. W124

Hello! I'm new to this forum and signed up because I am stumped!

Last year, when buying some parts for my 300TE, the seller basically just threw in a steering box for free. He said it was a rare part for a Sportline 124.

I have googled the part numbers on the box many times and can't figure out if that's true or what car this box comes from.

The PNs on the box are:
124 461 04 01
124 461 00 05

There are a few other numbers on it but none follow the PN naming format except for those two.

Thanks for reading!

The one with number 124 4610401 is for 190E W201 10 October 1982 08 August 1982 petrol and diesel .

Hey all -
I'd search for a good used late production w124 Sportline steering gearbox for the better part of a year; I was being cheap. . Ultimately a like-kind '94 E320 Coupe (Canadian) donor provided a 124 461 08 01, a W124 Sportline gearbox. While the donor VIN is no longer, it had been identified as having the production Sportline option.
