I thought that was the case

I did notice a Rover 416 at the breakers the other day. This was fitted with the Honda 16v engine & fitted the opposite way round to the K series power unit.

I personally, do not know of any rear wheel drive manual gearboxes suitable for anti-clockwise turning engines.
