Default LR3 axle tube housing bearing?

So I thought I ordered the correct bearing from Rock Auto under "Axle Shaft Bearing" since it was the only bearing that looked correct, a needle roller bearing. It is too small to fit into the axle housing tube for the passenger side. Heck, it almost fit right past the inside of the existing one. While the existing bearing may be fine, I would like to replace it but I can not locate the correct part number. Oddly rebuild kits come with bearing but none look like this one anyway. Looks pretty easy to replace at least.

And FYI, the bearing I bought was BCA NBB228 which I think is actually for the rear diff as a pilot bearing.

B-268 - Original brand was KOYO. Thought the stamping was on the back side, sadly. But cleaned it up better and suddenly my old eyes saw numbers. Now to order the correct one....
