Paul :

I believe that is a common difference, since the ports are drilled.  The
castings _are_ identical, there's just an extra machining step.

Even when new, the ID tag was the only reliable way to identify a
collection of parts as being a particular carburetor.  And the tag is
usually the first thing to be lost !
