You didn't rush out and buy the wrong coloured ECU per chance did you?

The flyweels are identical, as has been said. The difference I have found is the number of wires from the flywheel sensor, and of course the loom it connects to. Unfortunately I don't know what the extra wire does......

The red ECU will work with either, so unfortunately thats not really a way of telling...however, how many wires does the flywheel sensor on both your looms have? If they are different different then the one that isn't with your orange ECU should work with the blue one, if you see what I mean
