Transmission Idetification !!!HELP!!!

my friend got a 91 fc (converted to manual), and we're replacing the clutch so we need to know if this is an 86-89 or 90-91 tranny (for the torque specs and whatnot)

S5 always says MAZDA on the side of it.

The mount for the Y bracket/transmission crossmember is the 4 holes on the side style instead of two on the bottom. I'd say it is an S5.
