I did suggest it couldn't be identical as the part numbers would be the same.  I
don't think there were any other versions once they put the filler in the
fender/wing.
I guess the cap fits more or less in the same plane as where the seal fits the
fender.

Sorry if I mislead you.  I thought maybe someone had both and could take a look.
