    Ive checked on our parts catalogue and the gearbox fitting is totally different. 2litres have two bolt holes, 1.4's have 3 bolt holes.

    Like previous post, they are totally different. Also, bit of advice, get rid of the golf, 1.4s are the worst engines for oil pump failure, bottom ends are so common.....
