The answer seems to be that the early XOOQG were bayonet mount while the
later ones were E41 with the same code number. Here is an eBay auction for a
XOOSH which is listed in the books as an E41 filter but it also is bayonet
mount:

 I am not that up on screw mount cameras so hopefully someone more learned
that I will chime in with a referenced definitive answer,
