What year range of turbos will fit a 1983 turbo?

Anybody know?

If the engine is an H-type, then any turbos from an H engine should fit. Later (MY85+?) turbos are water cooled, whereas the '83s will be oil cooled but the exhaust manifold bolt patterns are the same.

I'm assuming that the B-type turbo engines had different exhaust manifold stud patterns.
