Someone more knowledgeable than me will need to respond regarding the dual use bell-housing; all I can provide is "hearsay."
However regarding the HEH-B question, I don’t have a Book of Norman but do have some notes which I dug out.
The "BON" references use of HEH-E or HEH-B for all Tigers with a serial # B9470057 up (p. 57). This is followed on p. 60 with a reference to the Tiger II’s V8 and matching HEH-B transmission. The planned Mark II 1/2 is subsequently referenced on p. 61 as with HEH-B.
Perhaps additional information will surface but that’s all I have for now.
