The diff has that one rubber-straw entering it from the top, not sure what is its function. Would the overheating diff trigger a warning of some sort? If not, what are the symptoms? And also - how hard do you need to push the car in order for the diff to overheat? I have a standard cover and I don't plan on changing it any time soon, as I'm not in the mood to pull down the diff yet again.....
