X1/9 and 128 interchange?

Which drivetrain components (engine, clutch, tranny) from a 1300 128 will exchange into an X, and vice versa? I know that the transmission case won't work because the shifter comes out the wrong side, but how about the guts inside? Asking because I can score a 128 drivetrain cheap, will gladly share what I can't use with our 128 cousins.

having put many X motors into 128s I can say that the motors swap out OK....which makes for nice 1500 128s. The oil pan, pump and pickup tube are unique to each application.

clutch, flywheel, starter work on either but they must be matched for the 1500 or 1300. I don't know if the internal guts from the gearboxes are interchangeable but I bet many are.

Motor tilts at different angle in each application so in theory the dogbone, and both manifolds would be unique to each application.
