Whoever told you that is talking crap.
The BLOCK is the same, they may well use a different sensor as the auto has a FLEX plate instead of a flywheel, so will be positioned differently, spacing wise away from the sensor.
So just put in your crank and firt the sensor, the crank differs ONLY in lack of a SPIGOT BEARING in the auto crank as there is no shaft from a gearbox to go in there so is not fitted.

If the CVH flywheel fits ok then yes it would be easy as if it comes to it, you can get a adjustable crank sensor anyway, so space it as needed by adjusting.
Sorry never done it so don't know if straight fit, but friend roosie has done loads and he had no special bits so std ford bits will fit.
