Hi,
I need to replace my fuel filler neck pipe as it got holes in the sleeve:

I got a used one from a 60SX punto which looks like this (all 1 piece plastic, non rounded pipe):

I've found pictures of these 2 fuel tanks, one that is 60SX, one is from 75SX:

75SX, and the same on my 1.6 cabrio:

60SX fuel tank, and the filler pipe I got is from a 60SX too:

you could see that on my model, it has this electric valve circulated in red, also there are 2 fuel lines that goes into the pump instead of 1.
another different is the cap which on my model is threaded and on the other model is screw on.

Could I still use that one?
Does any of your mk'1 make a pressure release sound when you open the cap? because mine doesn't, and I believe it's due the holes I've covered with epoxy.
 
Not 100% sure, but I don't think you can mix the two systems. The double fuel line is for pre-1998 models and the single later. See attachment for a bit of explanation from the Haynes manual.
