I think the earlier ones are a little different in appearance but they should all fit.

All the stock OEM evo lifter blocks I have ever seen are painted...either silver or black. As far as chrome ones your choices are S & S, Jims, or made overseas crap. Most of the chrome ones you see on stock motors are covers...which is what you want if you don't want to spring for the high dollar ones.
