Is the Air Compressor for a M52a2 Multi fuel LDS-465 the same as LDT-465??

I don't think my air compressor is working at full capacity. So i did some searching and did not find an answer to satisfy my question, so now it is time to use my shout out to the pro's. I would like to change it but i can't find one stating LDS-465 just LDT-465 or M35a2 multi fuel. Since it is a LD series engine i was thinking :shock: they might be the same. Can anybody verify this for me?

The only notable differences are the output plumbing which can be switched between compressors. Engines in the deuce has the air outlet facing towards the fender, engines in the 5 ton face towards the core support. As mentioned, the compressors are interchangeable.
