Generally any OM617 will work with that car (it is what came with it), the main differences are either NA/turbo as you mentioned, and some had california emissions, but can be eliminated. 1985 brought some changes to the surrounding systems as well. You'll probably want to stick with a turbo 617 or face the curse of extreme slowness. Should be a fairly straightforward drop-in. You can go with a newer engine if you have the swap cars side-by-side but more things will need to be swapped over and adapted.
