My wheelset also came from Spain.
They are similar if not the same than this ones:

It has engraved "CSC20241018-54T" in the rear centerlock ring.

thanks kurrante
This is something bizarre.
are you sure you have a real D272 or a "clone of a just cloned DTSwiss"?

Because in the DT240/350, the caps are just pressed and the body come out without any tool (just pulling).

The issue of the body is not related to the body itself but with the cap that have different sizes

I bougth the wheelset as CSC with D272 ceramic hub.
I send you photos, of the hub with the HG original hub, its interiors, and with ht DT one.

Tried today. DTs Ratchet LN original body fits perfectly in the D272 hub. Didn't measure the bearings, but they are ceramic 6802. My hubs didn't have the famous 11mm allen hole. The cap just pull off with my hands.

I have the D272 hub w 36t ratchets on the CSC wheelset I purchased early this year.  See notes above.  So far at 2500 road miles I am very pleased with the D272 hub.  Its a DT350 clone - strait pull. Only 2 concerns I have had are 1. unbranded bearings - have had no premature wear so far. 2. The End Caps.  The end caps require a 11mm allen wrench to remove them rather than just pulling them off like most others. I had some difficulty locating 2 11mm allen wrenches locally to get the job done. The end caps are single labrynth seal. Having a double labrynth like the DTS caps would better seal out water ingress. 
I have not had any dirt or water ingress problems however. 
Hub internals are still clean as day 1 so I have not experienced any rathet wear either.  Hub noise is medium. (I prefer quiet freehubs) My other CSC wheels have Novatec hubs with pawl ratchets.  I would put the D272 at at least equal in terms of quality. Extra credit for the ratchet design.

Hello. Do you think that the D272 hub is compatible with an original DT Swiss body? Thanks.-
