Headers for my car?

Guys,
Would these fit my car?
It's the same engine, right, bar the displacement and SC?

Found these too. Honestly don't know if either of them are reliable or if they will even work.

Ive heard that he welds crack on OBX headers. The second link looks like AMS headers which are very good quality.

wonder if these would work on w211 e320 since the 98 - 02 w210 e320 were switched to the M112 engine (same as w211 e320 gasoline engine)

I saw those. But didn't consider them because of the model year.
Would really like to know this..

Ok..I guarantee the OBX ones do not fit our cars!
I cannot imagine how they slide into a smaller W203 bay but not in a W211!
I would need to cut out almost the whole inner panels and bend one of the pipes on the right bank manifold to clear the alternator! I already dropped the engine..BLOODY HELL!!! What a waste!
Up for sale if anyone interested.
