difference between manul and auto engine

[GTR326]

Is the M97.01 3.8L 997 engine the same for triptronic and manual cars?
Same mounting holes for flywheel? oil pumps etc?

The basic engine is exactly the same; there are extra hoses, brackets and sensors on the automatic cars, but all that is bolt on stuff.
