[LRflex] Vario elmar F4: 70-210 - questions to trinklers

I'm asking the same question as Douglas but for the above cited  Leitz 
70/210 F 4 zoom produced Minolta.

Here are some of the questions that have come across:

a) Is the minolta zoom with the same values the same lens as the leitz 
one - optically I mean - the "wrapping" is obviously different
b) if so, is it possible to adapt the (cheaper) Minolta  zoom to the R?
c) if not, what are the differences?
d) if not, can the lenses that compose the Minolta  zoom be used to 
maintain an ageing Leitz zoom - just in case.

Thanks in anticipation for your contributions.
