well looking at the turbo i would say 200tdi as the actuator sits on the otherside of the turbo on a 300 unless its just a 200 turbo on a 300 engine :?

300 tdi has sepentine belt and only one belt.

200 has 2 belts, alternator and fan.

That has two belts so it is a 200 tdi.

The anciliaries could be either as he says it's a 200TDi car.  The dipstick and thermostat housing are the bits I was told to look out for.  The inlet/exhaust manifold is the same which implies that the turbos could be swapped either way, the plenum is the same casting.

Not that it matters, either is a good engine.
