Some place inside that encoder is a normal quadrature signal. Likely right at the phototransistor. If you could find it and buffer it then you have a conventional motor that is easy to interface.
I just got a few unknown motors myself and hade to figure of which lead wire was which. It not hard as the encoder circuits are not complex and you can just look at the traces on the little PCB.
