They are both Isuzu! Top one is the newer 1.7 found in mk4's and bottom one found in Mk3's.
This is the Vaux 1.7

I had just scoured ebay for a picture 
But yes that's the vaux one and if you buy one don't say I didn't tell you.

1.7dti is a great engine. older mk4s had the TD which wasn't too good when it comes to reliability and smoked alot for a standard engine.
