Default YB fuel rail mount on inlet

What's the difference between a 2 and a 4wd YB cosworth fuel rail? I need a billet fuel rail that fits on this apparently 4x4 rail fittings? Or a pair of fuel rail mounts making to fit my exhisting fuel rail.*
This is the inlet I have to go on,*

I currently have braided lines so won't use a standard ford item

Save your self a shit load of money and stick to the rail you have! Or if your going aero quip just mod your rail by having the fittings brazed on

I already have a billet rail, already have the braided hoses, fitting from tank tore etc etc

The genesis rail bolts onto plenum cover bolts 1and4, but the Swedish type has no fixing threads just brackets on top for a 4x4 rail fixing hence my question

the top pic looks like a 2wd fuel rail as it just has a pipe coming out the end to connect to the pressure reg
the 4x4 rail has a bolt on fitting at the end for the reg to attach

Be careful with billet rails, some of them put the injectors at a crap angle, allowing fuel to leak past the seals or even letting the injector pop out! Seen a few times with different rails!

I think its only the way it mounts to the plenum and the regulator fitting?

It looks like the one on my old 2wd to be honest yes, and 4x4 ones I've seen have a bracket on the front for a reg.
Can anybody recommend a rail that sit square and mounts on the same face as the standard rail? NOT on the back of the trumpets like mine
