The splines are different between the TU engines and the XU engines.
Weak MA box fitted to the TUs! You should be fine with any box from a 1.4 or 1.6, or even a 106/Saxo etc with the same engine.
I had 2 used boxes on one of my 1.4's before it was even 10 years old but they were cheap and easy to find back then. Replacing the diff bearings might be a better option nowadays. It's quite easy to drop the diff alone as mentioned above.
