Ariens older tecumseh 5hp vs newer 5hp are they a direct bolt on?

I have an old ariens 5hp from the 70s that needs a carb and a gas tank, the frame is obviously still good. I found a good deal on a newer tecumseh 5hp snowblower engine with a 3/4" x 2 5/16 keyed and tapped shaft. Is this a direct bolt replacement for the older 5hp engine? Unfortunately I can't look at my machine because it is a few hours away at my cabin up north. Any help would be appreciated!
