People tend to build the big power engines from RS500 and 200 blocks as they accommodate the longer studs, but does 200 block have any considerable benefits over 205 block when having big power (+450 hp) without longer studs? In other words if you have two 500 hp engines without longer studs, one 200 block and one 205 block, would they be equally strong? There seems to be very little amount of YBs running over 450 bhp without longer studs, so I was just thinking.

Blue cam cover was BT Escos, Sierra's were either red or green, the latter is a YBG engine with a cat and CL.
2WD heads differ from 4x4 heads, as said you can't go by the colour as it could have been changed or painted.

I think but it is just a guess, is it not where the oil cooler goes?
