This is the only number I could find on the case:
VC (WV logo in some kind of recycle logo) G108287 It's a 2.0L that had D-Jet on it. The heads are 914 2.0L heads. I got the engine with the car (spare engine). The PO claimed he took it of from a 914. Anyone recognizes this?  |

Volkswagen Canada. They had a rebuilding facility there. The product quality was questionable. As for the "oil temp sender" location difference, there IS no such issue. Porsche added one in the plate on the bottom of the case, VW didn't use one. The hole, as well as a plate to cover it, is still there. There are a number of differences in the cases, all dependent on the year and the original use for a particular unit, but they're essentially all the same, 1969 through 1979. T4s and busses used a different oil filler and dipstick setup than Porsche used, and carbureted engines had a mounting point for the fuel pump machined into a boss on the case.
