B18b Difference B18c oil pickup
Could someone tell me and show me with pictures the differences in these two oil pickups?

Not a lot of pics out there that make the distinction clear - though I'm sure there are if you rummage around long enough.
The GSR unit is slightly different/longer due in part to the girdle on the mains, so the pickup/windage tray/sump (oil pan) all account for the extra thickness of that slab of metal covering the center three main caps (below them, technically).
I've not seen anyone lay them side by side to make identification easier.. sorry.
So then,
GSR pickup = longer because it has to drop lower before bolting onto the girdle.
Windage tray, specific to the girdle.
Oil Pan, deeper to account for longer pickup.
B18C- are unique that way.

Good luck
