Yes, the later model W58 has a different number of bolt holes on the extension housing compared to the early W58 (I can't remember if there's an extra two or if two are missing) which means you have to use the rubber block specific to that box. As mentioned the studs on the rubber block aren't compatible with the early W58 crossmember, but it's not a big deal to modify it, ie elongate the holes a little and use big washers. 
FWIW the auto crossmember that came with my Aristo is the correct width for the MA61 trans tunnel and the bolt holes almost line up perfectly with the threaded holes in the floorpan (again a little elongation is required). The only reason I didn't use this is because it would have mounted the engine further forward than I'd like.
