Gearbox mounts - MA61 vs RA65

Mr toyota wants $160 for a gearbox mount.
Trusty auto-one sadly don't have a part listing for an MA61 gearbox mount.
They do however have a listing for an RA65 gearbox mount ($70). I want to know if they are the same. Not similar - they need to be identical. I don't want to use the RA65 one if it isn't going to be as strong, or if a slight adjustment will need to be made. When it comes down to it I'd rather pay the extra $90 and get a toyota genuine one. Alternatively, if the RA65 & MA61 gearbox mounts are totally identical in every way, then it'd be foolish not to get the cheaper RA65 one.
Does aynone know for sure?

I've never seen any gearbox mount different.
I have with me a manual MA61, auto MX73, manual MS85, auto UZS131, all the same.
They physically look different, but the mount points are all in the same position.

In terms of the material composition (like the rubber for example) - do you know if some are stiffer or stronger than others?

Obviously newer is stiffer, but apart from that all looked identical.
