Are these numbers on the same engine? Can you send photos?

VINs don't have that number pattern nor do they have lots of XXXs so I'm guessing they're part numbers.

F20C2 is the EU/UK AP1 engine. F20C1 is the US version. Probably something to do with local fuels and perhaps environmental restrictions.

That's a factory replacement motor -- the original motor must have failed.
