Default Keihin float bowl

Long story but I was looking for a float bowl for a Keihin butterfly style carb for an 84 XLX. My old bowl is cast 328-1 carb # is 27469-83B B83K. I did find a bowl cast 328-2 wondering if it's the same? Who would know?

Thanks for the link I emailed them. Tried calling but the person that answered said they sold the carb division to Sudco called them and left voicemail.

Quick follow up Sudco returned my call. Unfortunately they have no info and all of the Harley stuff was Harley only so they have no info on the factory Harley Keihin carbs. He did feel that if the casting number prefix is the same it should be the same bowl and the only difference is they used multiple molds and the suffix is for mold identification.
