Is a t3 cv joint and boot the same part used in a t2?

Some parts sites show them as the same part number. Are they directly compatible?

What about the driveshaft part as a whole?

Whats the best way to store some almost new ones that have been removed (still greased but contaminated with grass/dirt from removal)? They are German made ones so I'm guessing not cheapies, would be good to keep. Should they be washed off then regreased lightly (or fully) and bagged/sealed up?

T3 Drive shafts are longer.

The manual ones are about 546mm long, whereas T2 bus ones are about 476mm long.

Thanks. Into the parts box with the cvs and boots then.
