79F150400M, how do the outer rings of your balancers compare, is one thicker/wider/heavier than the other? are the timing scales and keyways in the same positions?

it's been long debated that there's a slight difference between the 351M and 400 balancer, i wonder if you might have an example of each side by side in your hand, any way to take and email or post pics of what you have?

by the part numbers in the links, one is 351M(-BA) and one is 400(-DA), it'd be really cool to lay this 'myth' to rest either way, busted or confirmed!
