Will 117 dual manifolds work on a 116?

I have a euro car, but from before they started putting true duals on my model (88 I think). I have a set of european true dual exhaust manifolds from a 500. They need a little reconditioning, but they are solid. They are part number 117 XXXXX. I've seen a set that had part number 116 XXXXX on it. Question is, from the perspective of the exhaust ports, how different is a 117 from a 116? Will these work?

I'll offer this - for model year 86, the US-spec 420SEL and 560SEL have seemingly identical exhaust manifolds but the part numbers are different. Even the exhaust manifold gaskets have different part numbers. I guess port size is different.

Between the US-spec 84 500SEL and 86 560SEL the exhaust manifold part numbers are different but the exhaust manifold gasket part numbers are the same.

Well if the port size is different, would it hurt if a bigger manifold port was mated to a smaller head port? I assume that spacing is the same. Also, is the deck heigth any different? Would there be issues with the location of the flanges as in where they were pointing?
