09-10 4b12 vs 11-16 4b12 Engines

So I have a 2009 lancer gts and my crank bearings spun out on me last week,started out as a slight knock at around 3000 rpm and within 5 miles engine with to complete ****.... so I'm wanting to put a "newer" engine in instead of rebuilding this one. I did find two engines close to my area, a 2015' 4b12 with 15k miles on it and a 2016' 4b12 with 16k miles on it but I had someone tell me that any 2011 and newer 4b12 with not work as a direct replacement for my ride??? Any insight here from you pro's. Is that just completed bull or actually something legit. Thanks for any input.

Ok,so after not hearing any feedback from you guys��.... I bought a 4b12 out of a 2015 Lancer Se with 15k on it for $600. I'm picking it up on Tuesday this next week. I'll post the results if it's a successful engine replacement or not.

Got the "new" engine picked up today. Hopefully I'll start pulling the old engine out this weekend.
