Between the motors, not that I know of.

Between the transmissions there's a different Y-Bracket and Crossmember set that ONLY works on S5 manual cars's transmissions [the Y-Bracket connects diagonally to the transmission so both it and the crossmember are different]

some later model series 5 engines had a thicker rear iron casting which made them a more durable motor for making bigger power.

Karack thats what i was looking for. Any way to tell? I know there are some different intake manifold holes and plates and some markings on the keg its self are different. I know both are S5 but I wanna know what one is the later one!

look at where the rear iron meets the rotor housing just below the oil filter, the casting will be quite thicker if you have the revised iron, if you are still in question then you likely don't.
