I promise to be politically correct in all my posts to keep the BBBB from vociferating.

IMHO both were used by the engine plant during the general period when you engine would have been likely assembled at the engine plant. Not unusual to find a mix of both types on the same engine based on what I've got in my collection of pictures - small (for this detail) as that may be
