Green bearing snap rings?

My guess is if you unbolt the axel retainer you will find the snap ring behind the retainer plate. It will either be on the outer part of the bearing or broken.

Can not say I liked that method of retention. Not sure why it can not be retained like Ford 9 inch, outer race sandwiched between the housing end and the retainer. Some machining on the housing flange and a shim made to make a square flange in the inside???
