My Escort has the little black box on the top of the transmission and it's an IB5.
As was mentioned above, the MTX75 'box has a collar to lift before you engage reverse (like most Vauxhalls do). If there's no collar to lift, it will be an IB5. The other way to check is to see if reverse gear has synchromesh (i.e. if you can engage reverse whilst rolling forwards without it crunching - the MTX75 has synchromesh on reverse, the IB5 doesn't).
I'm only double-checking because the MTX75 manual transmission takes automatic transmission oil.
