Looking at the microfilm, it looks like you're both right. The bell crank that 
I'm familiar with is the A version which is called out for all engines, but 
there are instructions to use that part plus to replace some other parts if you 
have an engine earlier than a particular number. Then there are 2 different 
versions of both the vertical and horizontal pushrods, for which you have to 
choose the single port version or the dual port version. It looks like the 
early one may have been different, with not so much strain on that 90 bend.
