Default AU timing cover?

Guys ive got to change one of my timing chain guides, so i though i would do my serpentine conversion at the same time.
What i am wondering is will an AU timing cover fit on my ed?
I have acsess to a complete AU front end so i thought this may be the better way to go.
Ohh and i know i will need to get hold of an XH idler pulley.

Not sure if it will fit... the bolts that come up from the sump are in a different position from what I remember when I fitted my AU motor.

Repco sell the XH tensioner for $160 apparently.

Good luck converting, on the EA it was not straight forward, and in the end my motor died, good excuse to pull it apart (and it still is) ............. LOL

P.S. all I did was hacksaw another timimg mark on the serpentine balancer to save swapping the timing case.

You can use an EF/EL cover, but the AU one is different due to the sump.
