If needing to rebuild an engine of this range I'm not sure if they are all of the same diameter and number of teeth - they MAY be interchangeable but check up first.

all interchangable but the 164 E had steel gears , last forever but more noisy , The original cam gear was fibre so could wear/break after high mileage . Last i heard you could only get steel gears .
