So are you thinking maybe these valve covers would fit the 1.9s since they have the 3 fasteners accross the top?  It would be interesting to know if they'd fit.  It looks like the Polos have the distributor coming out the other end of the VC, so that would be a bit of a problem.  I guess the other questions have to do with length, width, and bolt hole spacing.  As far as I can tell, the part number for that VC is 030103475F.
