Brino,
The reason that I recommended the MMB5 even though the earlier one actually does cover just the M?B is three-fold. The only significant differences operationally between the MFB and MFC are the added outboard arbor support, and the lack of a cutter guard. The MMB5 is the most extensively cleaned up one. And knowing whether or not a particular part is the same on the MFB as on some or all of the other models can sometimes aid in finding one. Because the average seller on eBay or elsewhere quite often doesn't know or at least doesn't list the actual part number but does usually say what model a part came off of.
