Default Timing Belt part number?

I have a brand new Porsche TB for my 88 S4 which I want to eBay (long story but another new belt recently installed turned out fine on inspection, and looseness was down to worn cam gears since replaced).

The p/n is 928.105.157.60, but in PET the belt is listed as 928.105.157.50

Does anyone know why the numbers are different? I want to make sure that it's described correctly on eBay so buyer doesn't get wrong part!

Purchased from the good folks 928 Intl, and now I look I see the 928.105.157.50 is described on their site as "high torque design". It's also much cheaper than the one I bought which I didn't notice when I was ordering the belt in a hurry!

928.105.157.50 is listed as the HTD belt 83-95 per 928 Specialists. Not sure about the 928.105.157.60

Is that p/n hand written on the box? or..

We use the 60 to designate an original belt with the Porsche name on the back. That doubles the price.

Ah thanks Jim. All clear now and may make it a more attractive proposition on eBay!
