Is a Grace F9-L stylus usable on a F9-E cartridge?

Have a chance to get a NOS Grace F9-L stylus. Would it be usable on my current F9-E cartridge? Are the bodies identical with only the stylus differing? An answer to this weighty question would be much appreciated. My thanks in advance.

Actually, MoFi, I believe that may not be true, surprisingly. From "Sumiko Reports" Volume 1 No. 5 dated June, 1980, in an article entitled "Improved F-9L and F-9E Cartridges Add New Eminence to the Grace Family":

Thus, to answer to the varied needs of the studio, all Grace styli (except the L) will fit on the same F-9 body.
