Default Touring M8 VS SOFTAIL M8 Engine fitment

So I have a dilemma. I have purchased some black engine cover parts from a 2018 Road Glide 107 in hopes they will fit my 2018 Fatboy.

Now I am searching for a black primary case so I have no downtime waiting on parts from powder coating. Can anyone advise what you use or how you cross reference part numbers?

Below are part numbers I have found
25700685 is the Satin Chrome part number (OEM for my Fatboy)
25700559 and 25700377 are part numbers I keep seeing on ebay.

Please comment and discuss below.

Looked at this myself,
The cam cover & rocker box lids are ok
Think the Derby cover might fit an 18 & trans cover not as for hyd clutch on touring
Looks like HD changed the stock primary cover on a 19 FB to what they call narrow profile, their Black one narrow profile in P&A 25700913( same as fitted to Heritage) is ok to fit an 18 FB but need a different derby cover to suit.

So by my thinking, black takeoff( if not going P&A) primary/derby/trans covers off a Heritage required

Thanks. I have come to the same conclusion as you after spending a few hours hunting down info. 25700913 I believe is also on the Breakout. Looks like I'll have a Derby and Trans cover for sale.
