Default Series 1 rs turbo crankshaft difference

Hi everyone new here could anyone tell me the difference between the series 1 rs turbo crankshaft and every other 1600 crank is it right that the series 1 crank ran the oil pump through a geared system and the others run it through the nose of the crank?

the oil drive difference isn't turbo specific, it's just the MK3 Escort. Mk4 was updated.

Hi thanks for replying I know the difference in oil pump I was just asking if the series 1 crank was different in any way because I've heard it used a gear on the nose of the crank to run the oil pump I know the post 86 just ran off the nose without a gear on any more information would be greatly appreciated
