Tried to buy a gasket set for my M50 2.5 and it turned out that he had lost it.
But he does have one for a 2.0 would i be right in thinking that the only difference between the two would be the gaskets for the intake manifold or are there any other differences?

head gasket are different sizes too i'd have thought, the 2.0 and 2.5 have different size pistons i think?

i assume the valve stem seals would be the same size though.
