I compared them VERY carefully and believe this is not true... Their dimensions are identical.

Cool, thanks for the heads up. I'm due for some major maintenance here this spring (carbon clean, probably go ahead and do water pump) so might as well get that out of the way as well. It wasn't really that bad (maybe a drop worth of oil total), but slightly bothersome to be appearing at all.
