I thought the dual pattern bell housings referred to the trans end where
there are both wide and narrow bolt patterns for the early/late toploader...


A friend of mine has one...and it will only fit a 6 bolt block

Andy:

Not that it probably matters in your situation but there are bell-housings
around that will bolt up to both the 5-bolt and 6-bolt blocks (they have two
sets of mounting holes). They show up occasionally on eBay. Many years ago,
my original bell housing fractured where the clutch arm enters, so I
replaced my bell housing with one with the dual pattern, anticipating that I
might, somewhere down the road, want to use a later block. That never
happened, but it's still in there.
