Hi Dude
A little bit of confusion here, the oil filter of the carburettor version of the 600 is different but the one for the under seat pipe fuel injected version is the same, which is most likely what you would have been supplied with. The FZS600 98 - 03 is much shorter than the 400 one and this is due to the oil cooler fitted to the 600.between the filter and the engine.
I had a used set of 400 inlet manifold rubbers and they were not exactly the same size. Maybe because they were knackered they did not measure up but they were close in size. However I have a new set for a friend’s 600 on order and will check them with a damaged set of 400 carburettors I have in the garage. This will be brilliant for 400 owners because the 400 ones are over double the price of spurious ones for the 600 and I need a set for my sons 400.
Back to the exhaust, yes it does fit straight on to the 400 but it is not the same Would hate to be a 600 owwer and be sold a 400 one. I had one on my sons for his test; he took it off again after passing. The downpipes will fit, even the exhaust gaskets are the same size and part number.
I'd say together we should be able to help many owners out there.
If anyone has a standard 400 exhaust I am looking for one.
Regards
