Find more information about Bosch pomp - from what period it is. In Mk3 pomp had 25,4 mm narrow wheel with 2,5 mm low teeth, in Mk4 and Mk5 to 1997 it was 25,4 mm narrow wheel with 3,5 mm high teeth, in Mk5 from 1997 27,6 mm large wheel with high teeth.
Theoretically each pomp can work in each engine - provided that you give correct cam belt. Belt with high teeth can not works on wheel with low wheel, large belt can not works on narrow wheel.
