Default 1999 4.0 SE has bosch engine syst?

FROM:
http://www.rangerovers.net/modelspecs/1999.html"

1999 Model Year Statistics

Base Price $58,625 (Kelley Blue Book) Weight N/A lbs. Warrantee was 4-Year 50,000 miles.

**Early 1999 Range Rover 4.0 models were actually exactly the same as the 1998 models since there were slowdowns in starting the production of the new models with the Bosch fuel injection system. The 4.6 HSE model was sold out due to strong demand, and the only “left over” 1998/99 models were 4.0 SE models. Land Rover rebadged these left over models as “4.0” (without the SE) and “4.0 S” (without the E). If you looked closely on most of the models you could see where the S or S and E were peeled off.
new engine

Powertrain:

After the limited run of 1999 4.0 and 4.0S models that had the same 4.0L/Lucas FI engine as the 1998 models Land Rover introduced a new 4.0 SE and 4.6 HSE with Bosch fuel injection engine management (the same engine management as the BMW 7 Series). "

you can clarify by looking at the engine. GEMS engine management system is a metal intake plenum that is rectangular and would say 4.0 on it.

Bosch intake plennum is less distinct - more of a metal zigzag of tubular shapes, without the distinctive large single metal box shape on top.
