Default advice needed please zetec engine

Hi all
I just purchased a 2005 fiesta zetec s with a engine with a holee in it conrod through the block but says duratec on the air box

So on advice I bought a 1.6 zetec from a early focus but it was advertised as a 98 to 04 but from phoning afew places it will fit
So I got the old engine out and put every sencer wnd auxiliaries etc on the new engine but its a totally different engine
I.e the head is different and the duratec air filter lugs cant be put on
So I carried on regardless and got it back in all plumbed in and now it wont start it turns over fast and it smells of petrol and has a strong spark
So please can some one let me know if this engine is the right one or have I just waisted a day ddoing this
Thanks in advance

to shed some light on this the engines in the 2002 fiesta onwards are very similar to the zetec engines found on the mk4 and mk4 face lift models.

There are a couple of differences but overall they are basically the same engine. However ever the engine management side of things is different so you may have a problem there.
