Other signs it is Holden built
There are many differences between Canadian and Holden build trucks Ken, some of the most obvious are the Holden cab which differs in many details including the cowl vent being rectangular, windscreen frames having a slightly curved profile rather than flat like the Ford ones here, a smooth floor, doors without the round pressing in the centre of the inside pattern, and on the chassis the vehicle's chassis number is usually stamped on the left forward chassis rail.
I don't think I've ever encountered a 'DR' engine prefix, they are usually 'PR' or 'SR'. On the date plate on top of the dash (another Aust practice) the Holden plant for assembly is also normally stamped after the chassis number, usually a single letter, M, S, B, P. Interesting to hear about the under bonnet nomenclature. Let's see some of the pics in this thread as well, in particular the data plate.
