Matt,
There are 2 of them, one on each side of the hood. Here's the info right off the strut.
Eberhard Mfg Company
Cleveland, OH 44136-6697
Powerwise
8T00-120
That's all the info I can find.
The strut cylinder is about .750" Ø x 10.5" long. Total length expanded (as attached to hood) is around 20". It actually only compresses about 3" with the hood closed although it could compress much further if needed.
Here's some better pics
