Agreed, Cambo is a valuable source for information. It’s just through my research (shopping) I have not even found an MA version. I mean there’s so many numbers on these differentials it’s easy to misinterpret one. It’s been a few years since this thread was active so maybe a part revision too?

This MA version just sold a few moments ago:
https://www.ebay.com/itm/Carrier-For-F-Type-Assy-Rear-3-15-68K-/353130109971#vi__app-cvip-panel.

Of course, they assigned the wrong part number. Most of the auto recyclers will claim that any of the diff variants are compatible with any of the F-Type variants. When purchasing used, you need to purchase based on that 2 letter code. You could also rely on the VIN of the donor vehicle and get a dealer to confirm which model it was.

Yeah I noticed from the pics it was an automatic car. What's interesting is when I part search from multiple dealers websites for a 2016 V6S differential (LSD & 3.31 final drive) and then I check what it fits, it says it fits automatic AND manual vehicles. Are we sure this AA vs. MA even has a bearing on what diff fits what cars? Or is it just because the dealer websites don't drill down past the part number (T2R4000)?

No clue. Don’t even know why there would need to be a difference. I could see where the driveshaft might need to be a different length.

Another thing I noticed, that "YELLOW" designation on the tag only appears on differentials made after 2013 (MY2014), so I'm wondering there was a revision after the 2014 model year.
