Show both styles of bearings.  #14 is the crank mounted one, PN nla, 14a
and b are the flywheel mounted one and clips.

Oops, I didn't bother to look at the flywheel pn's to see if there was a
break of some sort.

maybe the cranks are the same and its the flywheels that are different? 
and also, a lot of these clutch kits (mine certainly) come with *two*
pilot bearings - maybe there is one for each style since they cannot
tell in advance which one it will be?
