Title: A3 Model 8PA - Engine BZB - Downpipe, is it the same as the 2.0T?

Here's my car, 2007 Audi A3 Sportback - 1.8 T FSI Ambition - DSG gearbox.

Hi, the flange on my pre-cat/frontpipe/downpipe fell off and apparently it's best I replace the whole downpipe(and remove the cat?)

I'm just a bit confused about about compatibility and with Covid-19 it's hard to get some answers at the minute.

I've been looking at Ebay and is anyone able to tell me if these are suitable(and does the fact that we drive on the right side of the vehicle matter when looking for parts for the 8PA)

example, would this from ebay fit my BZB 8PA ?
