Definitely an M20.  I would like to see a closer up picture showing the partial VIN.

Sorry, no I don't. For years I have been buying parts out of the US, but have sent very few the other direction. Probably worth sending the seller a message via eBay, as he could look into it for you, with the known weight and crate size.
EDIT: I had a look at any eBay sellers offering to ship a Muncie over here, and it looks like US$700-800. I'm sure it could be done cheaper than that by shopping around freight companies rather than post/UPS, but with the seller's starting price already over US$2,000 (due to current exchange rate), it'd probably only be worth considering if this was undoubtedly the trans that your car left the factory with.
