Lloyd,
Yes they are the same. If you have a good one I may be interested. I also want to check into the surplus manifolds Scottso mentioned earlier. I thought mine was good 'til I got them split apart. There's a crack heading to 2 O'clock and another going to 5 O'clock in this picture.
I believe it can be repaired, but I won't know til I can get it to someone. In the meantime I'll goo it up and put it back together. It may not be worth the cost of the repair if NOS replacements can be had for less than 3-4 hrs labor- By the time it's welded and ground flat again.
