Unfortunately, with both being stl files, its a bit difficult to make things out. The 5M has a slightly narrower but longer bolt pattern.

I am working on a standup 4 gear for the 6 series, which may morph into a layback/laydown style if I have to start moving weight forward
The plot thickens. AE released a parts list, which lists the gearbox as P/N 72046, which is visually identical to the V2 5M box (91552) other than the material. Could it have a different pattern?
