Try to find an lspci dump of that DL145 and check whether some PCI signature is different. If not, check whether DMI contains some string that makes it possible to tell the systems apart. If nothing helps, PCI subsystem IDs (not the normal vendor/device IDs!) have to be ripped out for both systems, disabling auto-detection, and manual -m is needed in any case.
As Google has it, it would appear that the onboard NIC is different:
DL145: 08:04.0 Ethernet controller [0200]: Broadcom Corporation NetXtreme BCM5715 Gigabit Ethernet [14e4:1678] (rev a3) 08:04.1 Ethernet controller [0200]: Broadcom Corporation NetXtreme BCM5715 Gigabit Ethernet [14e4:1678] (rev a3)
DL165: 02:02.0 Ethernet controller [0200]: Broadcom Corporation NetXtreme BCM5704 Gigabit Ethernet [14e4:1648] (rev 10) 02:02.1 Ethernet controller [0200]: Broadcom Corporation NetXtreme BCM5704 Gigabit Ethernet [14e4:1648] (rev 10)
Perhaps that could be used for the secondary PCI device in the signature? I believe the device currently listed there is the on-board VGA chip; I'm not sure why that was chosen.
