Yes this could be a problem if the FW`s were not match balanced. the auto FW should be matched to the balance of the manual FW. should have been marked before removing from the engine, then he would know where to remount it.
I have read here some are neutral balanced, but you never know.
The FW bolts should be replaced, as they are stretch/yield bolts. that is what I have read as far as the manual FW bolts go. they are pricy new.
What did you do with the old manual FW and driveline?
