There are no markings stamped on the barrel in english? It may have been rechambered to 257 Roberts or 30-06. If it's a 30-06 it would be good for shooting Mil-surp ammo, Fortunatly the early production jap action is one of the strongest in the world. late war production can be very dangerous so have it checked before shooting. The original 6.5 or 7.7 Jap ammo is extinct unless you can find old Norma brass and used dies for reloading.
Yeah probably a Type 38. I found a Type 99 (minus the bolt) a couple weeks ago in a pile of junk at a relatives house. These Arisakas are really cool guns, I like mine a lot. Mine is rechambered in .30-06. Haven't shot it yet but the sights seem good and it's a well-balanced rifle.
