Pre facelift centre bearing housings have their mounting holes wider apart than the post facelift version.
Ebay link is or the earlier version.

I returned an incorrect one just yesterday. It might have simply been a b@lls up from the supplier, but I'm reasonably sure that there are (maybe 3?) different types, so worth checking.
