No, the pattern is quite different on the 3 main than the 5 main engines,  
all of which are correctly referred to as B series, not A series (which were  
used in Midgets etc.)
 
Flywheels are a very bad thing to try and 'roll your own' unless you simply  
refer the matter to a knowledgeable machinist. But hey - they are your  
ankles...
 
I would not even consider trying to mate a flywheel from another engine to  
the MG crank - unless that match is exact the result will be dangerous. It  
normally requires custom machined flywheels (which are available).
 
What exactly are you attempting to accomplish?
