5"-port is basically how I've always seen the B5/B-5 name (or B-7, B7, B3, etc)...
I don't really care who copied who or whatever. Someone getting upset over something as arbitrary as engine name that is super generic, is pointless. (Remember the Orion B521 debacle?) Because nearly every company (in this industry especially) is guilty of copying someone or something at one point in time.
