yup!....but there are various types...
Early large filler neck (metal)
Late small filler neck (plastic)
Late small filler neck (plastic) but with swirl chamber and larger fuel outlet (injection models)
Syncro...different again.
What petrol engine is in there? injection or carb?

Hmmm..A reg could be metal filler but as far as petrol/diesel goes pretty sure they were the same.
