IMHO any 603 with a #22 head. Others will disagree, but there are plenty of cracked ones out there. Having said that, it is still cheaper to do the top end than to replace the whole engine. So the best ones would be found in the 1987 300D/TD and the 1986-87 SDL. Those are the only years for US imports. The OM603 was used in the rest of the world until 1989, AFAIK.
