Default My 1985 Mercury 75

So this week I'm going to get around to installing the aftermarket
power tilt & trim I bought over the winter. My lifting method is going
to be a come along and a good, solid tree branch in the back yard.

I did a bit of digging, and see that there is threaded area in the
opening AROUND the bolt that holds the flywheel on. Apparently this is
designed specifically for an eyebolt that you can use to lift the engine.

Problem is, I can't find a part number on the Mercury parts catalog
online for my particular engine, and I don't want to blindly order one
off eBay.

So, the question is.... Does anybody know if the lifting eyebolt
threads are "universal" across model years and sizes as is suggested by
the Amazon and eBay parts I've been able to find?
