Engine swap 700 1989

I am swapping engines on my 89 745t
I found a used 90 B230FT engine to replace the old one which was toast BTW
The volvo mechanic who sold me the 90 motor said it should just drop right in without changing anything.
The mechanic who is dong the work said he wants to change manifolds to stay with the original manifold from the old engine.
I dont understand the logic in changing manifolds since they seem to be identical

Any advice is most appreciated
