Did the rear end come out of the Chevelle, or just the gas tank? That axle sure looks like a Type O that only came in 67-70 Cutlii. It may have 12 bolts on the cover, but it only has 10 bolts on an 8.5" ring gear. The Chevy 12 bolt has an upside down "V" stamped in the cover and uses 12 bolts to retain an 8.875" ring gear.
