I don't think so, but I've never tried substituting them. If they were
interchangeable, I'm sure that Mercedes would eliminate one of them so
they didn't have to stock two different versions.

You are correct. The are both 7.20607 pumps but one is a 7.20607.74 and
the other is a 7.2060

Well, I'll be...it appears as if the OM606 engines did away with the
oil sump wing-extension. I suppose alternatively, you could go in
through the oil level sending unit with a flexible extension handle
magnet to grab the detritus. In addition, you could glue a few of
those powerful rare earth ma

The new style vacuum pumps have been reported to be reliable for more =

I suspect you dodged a bullet. I'd drain the oil, then pull the small
removeable side panel off the oil pan, and fish out the offending
marbles with a magnet.

I removed the vacuum pump from my '95 E300D, today, to replace it with a new
one from Rusty.
Right away, it was easy to spot why I totally lost all vacuum. The old pump
was trashed.
I'd post photos, if I could figure out how to. (Could someone instruct me
off line?)
