How to report a distribution from an Australian Superannuation fund for a duel US/ Australian citizen ?

I have no idea if this needs to be reported .

I was an IBM  employee in Australia from approximately  1985  thru 1998.

I retired several years ago.

I don't believe I made any contributions to the superannuation fund.

The fund has been through various companies including AMP and OnePath  and I don't have a precise audit trail yet  regarding the history of contributions vs  growth.

From what I have seen,  the US tax law may not be clear on how to handle this,  but I believe there are many others 

who are in the same situation ... If I seek tax law help , it will protect me but I prefer to do my own taxes as I have previously done with TurboTax.
