The diffrences to look out for are:

Later ones had larger diff bearing
later ones had larger mainshaft bearing
Some had the gate inside the box and sone under the gearlever.
some had a bolt on clutch are (early) and some had a welded clutch arm. Ther bolt on arm is larger in diameter.

Apart from that the cases are the same.
