Just removed the daugter card from my ALphaserver 800 for comparison, while this mystery card
has the right connector and and is the correct size its' mounting brackes/arm/rails are all
located above rather than below the PCB of the daugter card.

While I did note the holes in the PCB for the mounting/rails/arms/lever appear to in the same 
place on both boards, I cant help but feel following this line of thought any further will
lead to an unpleasent electrical burning smell :-)

Will dig out the camara, the  CPU may be of use to somone else.
