Upper tie bar only comes as an assembly, CW with the bush.
It's KKH102620 for the manual or auto box.

That's the L series top tie bar. It will probably fit ok. I suspect the rubber in the bush is tuned to the different engine characteristics.
Interestingly the L series is the only upper bar that it different. All other engines share the same upper tie bar part number.

Ok Will just buy the right one. Thanks again

I'm not saying it will or won't fit, but when they were first made there may have been a number of parts that were different between the L & K Series engines that after a while became the same part. The most obvious for this was the clutch - initially the L had its own clutch, but after a while the K clutch was used on both cars. What I would say though is that LR changed to say they were for the 2 vehicles.
