I have been reading there are two different X drives one for gas power one for diesel power. I would think the only difference would be ratio’s because you don’t spin a diesel high RPMS.

Are these Merc drives your talking about? I know B Max offers a diesel drive and it has a lower x dim.

You hit it - the decal. All X's are the same. The B1 comes in 3 ratios.
