What sort of freehub is this?

Got it off in the end.
It was undone by an 11mm allen key, and i had to insert the key through the hub.
The bolt that holds the freehub to the hub cannot be removed from inside the hub.
I dont know what brand the hub is as it has no branding on it, and the hub make was not listed on the advertisement for the wheel when i bought it. All i know is that it is is laced to an Alex DM22 rim.
Normal Shimano cassettes fit the freehub.
You can see it here along side a Shimano freehub. The Shimano freehub is the one on the right, and the one i am trying to find a replacement for is the one on the left. Can someone tell me what it is? Anywhere i could find a replacement?
Thanks in advance.

This looks a lot like the free hub I replaced on my Marin Eastpeak 5.5.Mine was also held on with an 11mm internal drive/nut.After searching a host of websites it ended up being a Formula FH6.(it's also the same as a Giant rear hub...they use Formula aswell).Hope this helps.0

Only avaliable in America by the looks of it. Ive checked everywhere.
Ebay, the link here, its unavailable at amazon.co."uk", google searched it and looked in different places. Thats very annoying. But it looks like i have no choice.
My hub bearing race on the braking side looks to be quite badly rusted. Ive soaked it in WD for a day or so. If its corroded badly i think i might just end up getting a new rear wheel...0 -

Specialized use a similar design in some of theirs. Problem is, they use two almost identical ones, only differing in the depth of those splines that sit into the hub. Stupid formula stuff.0
