    1st Q answer. Don't bother even looking for a repop scope is my opinion. Just save twice and buy once.
    2nd Q answer. In short, boith a Mk1 and Mk2 telescope are clearly identified as such on the main tube.
    3rd Q answer. Yes. As your rifle isn't original, what does it matter. As I have said a zillion times here. When real Armourers rebuilt rifles we did what was NEEDED and our BEST for whoever needed it. Any rifle that went into an Armourers shop was repaired using what was available. So far as I can recall, I can safely say that I never once saw an Armourer ( I mean REAL Armourers) look through a tray of parts looking for specific parts.

    Just my realistic look at life............
