Could it be an RE, either way it’d be the same for 318 or 360.
The 3 pin connector picture identifies it as a RH lock up. The RE has a 5 or 7 pin if I recall correctly.

I thing 318 magnum is differently balanced than 360 magnum

The 318 and 360 are balanced differently, but that has nothing to do with the transmission itself. You just need the correct flexplate for the engine. Also, you need to use only a Magnum 5.9 flexplate, as a LA engine has a different balance weight.
