The difference between the 5003 and 5010 is the tab that the brake band bolts to. It's vertical on the 5003 and at about a 45° angle on the 5010. Also the 5003's and the early 5010's had ball bearings on the brake shaft and later 5010's had needle bearings.

If you really want to know everything about those 2 transmissions, I suggest paging through this thread.  It has everything you ever wanted to know about the #5003 and the #5010 transmissions.  Excellent information and lot of it in this thread.    Bob is right though...it is the brake band mount that is used to identify those trannys from the outside.
