I’ll try to remember to post the stock gdi blend table tomorrow. The car runs mostly port injection 99% of the time. I think the oil dilution is mainly on the ones that aren’t dual injected.

So 2021 MY was when the switch happened?This is what the 2021 elastomeric looks like.
The prior ones were fluid.
Awesome Info.
Being dilution is highest on cold ECT are there other tables for cold start up ?
Yes, just look down in front of the radiator and behind the sway bar, the crank pulley is easily identified. My '20 has the fluid style.Can you see enough of the damper with the engine in situ to identify the type ?

What specific markings or visual features does the fluid one have that you can identify it over the other one?Yes, just look down in front of the radiator and behind the sway bar, the crank pulley is easily identified. My '20 has the fluid style.
The outside face is one piece so it's thicker. The elastomeric one has a thinner outer face with that step down ledge that has the rubber portion bonded in. So basically if you have a one piece outer face with no inner ledge, that's the liquid one.What specific markings or visual features does the fluid one have that you can identify it over the other one?
That confirms that my Feb 2020 engine has the elastomeric damper.I was able to nab these. The first is the elastomeric piece on the F150, and most likely later mustang GT models. The second is the viscous style on the 2018.
My car is an October 2019 build with the liquid one, so it definitely seems it was a mid year change.That confirms that my Feb 2020 engine has the elastomeric damper.
I assume Feb 2020 is to early to group as a 2021 ‘update’ indicating this was more of a running change rather than a MY20 / MY21 change ?
