X16XE is the Vauxhall labelled one, and C16XE is the Ecotec labelled one? Is that right?

C16 has a higher compression ratio of 11.0:1 although bore and stroke is the same. i believe the exhaust valves were larger on the C16

I know about the EGR and the inlets.

But are the internals different at all?
I know the C16 has a baffled sump but does the X as well?
Anything else?
