It is from the 1988 to 1992 Audi 80.  It is almost the same as the 93+ VW
engine only it is CIS from the factory and it is the same height as the
1600 and 1800 cc blocks (93+ is 16.5mm taller).

If you are going to install it into a Diesel Vanagon then yes it is the
same deal as other VW engines in respect to the oil pan/pump and bell
housing.

One thing to keep in mind is the CIS head is unique as compaired to other
CIS engines.  There is no injector holes in the head - they are in the
intake manifold for better cooling.  This means that unless you swap the
head over to a VW 1.8L head you are stuck with "right hand" injection - no
problem in my case.
