Does your car have a single or dual brake circuit?
The later MCs were designed for a dual circuit.
The car's firewall also needed a depression
stamped in it to make room for the larger reservoir.
The very old brake MCs looked like the clutch MC, but
there may have been an intermediate single-circuit
model with a plastic reservoir.
The bottom line is this: Does your MC have one or two
hydraulic lines going to it?
BTW, I would not buy from eBay a new part that I could
get
from a vendor, unless it was much cheaper. Just too
many
ways to end up disappointed...
