The earlier master cylinder is bigger and will hit the distributor cap
if the engine is also the later one.
The earlier cars had ecu controlled ignition (later dropped) on which
the distributor just had a pickup and the distributor cap so it was shorter.
If the bores of the cylinder are still good you can get seal only or
seal and piston repair kits.
Even if there is light rust in the bores you can get away with honing them.

Trying to recommision my newly aquired Quantum and the master cylinder
is leaking. Having removed it, turns out its a late XR2 one that comes
up as around £330 on a brake parts site! Any ideas on if I can use an
earlier model or a good place to try and source one? £330 is obscene! --
