I can't see them being different. Certainly worth a careful comparison of the two once it's opened up but I'd be surprised if they weren't the same.

Two different types exist, they were changed when the high capacity oil pump and modified flow restrictors (T vents) were introduced.
If they look the same inside then you should be ok, if different then dont use.
