Hello all,
I have some leaking trim cylinders on my 2001 era, Volvo dual prop outdrive. It sits behind a Volvo AD31 diesel engine. The research that I did suggest it is a DP-E. They both are leaking at the caps where the rod goes into the cylinder body. I am looking to rebuild them and found the end caps with seals but want to confirm they are correct for my model. Any help is appreciated!

As you sort of seem hesitant the transom and drive assemblies belong to a true DP-E model plus without a Volvo product model designation numbers / serial numbers for both to help confirm your components, going to the VP parts website and inputting DP-E brings up the following trim cylinder components to help compare what you're seeing on your end...,



If possible, look both on the engine for a sticker with all three serial numbers or search around the drive and transom housings for a plate with numbers on them if you haven't already... The following info may help guide along if needed,

I was able to find a sticker like @Fun Times mentioned. Very hard to make out though but can verify that it is a DP-E outdrive.

Pretty sure your serial number is 411168003 while the product number ought to be 3868724.
