Clarification on swap
Hey guys, my f23a1 in my 99 accord lx was leaking oil from almost every seal possible after 235,000 miles, so i decided to swap it out for a jdm motor. The company sent me a motor with f23a stamped on the block. The paperwork they sent showed they sent me a f23a5 equivalent motor when i asked for the f23a1 equivalent. Did they send me the wrong motor? I have searched and found the differences between the f23/a1/a4/a5 btw, just nothing specifically on the f23a. Thanks!

Re: Clarification on swap
p.s. so far the differences ive noticed on the motor are: no O2 bung on the exhaust and a 4-2-1 manifold, an outlet on the IACV was deleted on the f23a, no cruise control on the f23a, the water outlet had a bend unlike the USDM version, and a black valve cover.
