How do you figure out which terminals are which on one of these potted bridge rectifiers?  There are 3 tabs oriented the same way and one at 90 deg to the others…  my multimeter doesn’t help either; I get 500 ohm between the ‘ood’ tab and two of the others when positively biased and infinite when negatively biased..  

   

Help?
