M-Calipers appeared on the very first 911 in 1965/66 models. they did not have the 7mm spacers and believe it or not, those models would probably be a direct bolt on to an early 914 (70-72.5).

Later in 1967 the 911S received the first M-Caliper to have the spacers which is more common to the M-caliper we know and love today. They ran through 75 and some 76 cars had them as well. The 911S retained the M-Caliper until the 1969 model year when they received the S-Caliper. The S-Caliper ran through the 1976 930 production run and many made their way on some later cars.

Regarding the S-Caliper question; yes, "basically" any aluminum caliper you get your hands on will be an S-Caliper. There were 906/908 calipers etc. but, they probably won't be floating around on the open market these days. I will/do have a couple of sets of fully restored S-Calipers available soon. They will go in the $800 per pair range.
