The unit is LP/110V only. Dometic uses the same cooling unit (with two pockets) for the two-way and three-way double-door fridges. I'll get closer shots when the cooling unit is removed from the box tomorrow.
The main thing to note is the element is NOT a 354W and has never been changed, so I'm not sure about the validity of the higher wattage/over-heating issue. It appears, judging by this unit, that a defect can show up even with the standard 325W element.
If memory serves very few of the elements were actually stamped 354. A 325 watt with a lower resistance value could easily draw over 350 watts under some conditions. Has anyone actually seen an element stamped "354"? It will be interesting to see what your resistance values are for the element in the failed fridge.
