I was under the impression the heads are the same? and the cams are the same too, its the c16xe and x16xe that are different with the c16xe having a different exhaust cam!?

Nope Lotus helped the c16, x16, and x14 engines, they also helped with the c14se, and the c and e16se (nova sri, gsi and gte engines)
Cosworth built the castings for the 20xe and 20let heads.
