S4 TII and S4 N/a component compatability

Ok I want to know if an S4 N/a(auto or 5 spd) front cover will go on an S4 TII engine. The same thing for an oil pan will an S4 N/a(auto or 5spd) oil pan go on an S4 TII engine. If those will not work will the front cover of an S5 TII aswell as the oil pan fit onto an S4 TII engine. Thanks Also how much is involved in removing the front cover of an engine?

PS I did not bother searching because I did not even know what to type in.

Yes, but since the turbo drains into the oil pan through the front cover, you will need to modify or create a turbo drain...

As for mixing S4/S5 front covers, don't do it. You will run into issues with the oil o-ring. If you must do it, don't use a front cover gasket, use silicon sealant instead.

So the oil pan is swapable. What kind of problems would I get with the S5 front cover on there?
