Not easy to see the pic on my phone, but that looks like a MAF (rather than the M42 AFM) so it should be an M44.
Another quick way to tell is the thermostat housing - M42 metal, M44 plastic.

Intake Manifold looks like the later type M44.
Not sure if some M42s used this too...

M42 to M44 changeover was 1995, facelift was late '96.
