Crank pulley: will a BP fit a later model B6?

I understand there was a change in the design between the short nose and long nose B6 motors, but is the front pulley on a BP interchangable with a later model B6?

I have no positive idea if the pulleys are interchangeable!

However I believe that each pulley is unique to the type/model of engine due to crank dimensions and drive belt styles.

Seen a youtube video by Mike King where he describes the the different versions :roll:

He starts getting into it after about a minute.
Hope it helps
