Default MTX75 onto 1.0 EcoBoost or 1.6 EcoBoost?

Does anyone know if this is possible?

In the old days of CVHs and Zetecs, the gearbox bolt pattern was pretty well standard, but that started to change with the introduction of the 1.6 Zetec SE and others, so what's the deal with the modern stuff? Is there any gearbox interchangeability?

I was thinking about a possible future project that might involve either a 1.0-itre EcoBoost or a 1.6-litre EcoBoost. Partly for strength (the IB5 is obviously pap) and aftermarket ratio options, the MTX75 would suit my needs better. I just wondered if one from a 2.0-litre Duratec might bolt to the EcoBoost engines? Is there any standardisation in the bolt patterns in the more recent Ford engines, or is it just a mix up these days?
