I'm positive mine (european) came with the x455 bricks when I got it back in
'76.

It's about the two black 1 x 2 bricks with hole.

Cause my set was not MISB, could the wrong parts be used?

If this set should contain the 3700s, I am not dissapointed by the fact • mine

I believe your x455 piece is correct. The 661 inventory on Peeron was • copied
from the 456 inventory. The latter set is 1977, the former 1976. I don't • think
the change in that technic brick was noted when the copy was made. All of • the
sets from 1976 on Peeron have the older brick. The newer brick starts at • 1977.
I've notified Peeron about the necessary change. HTH, Clark
