Yes, all Calais came with a "series 2" dash, however some earlier Series 1 Calais came with the "series 1" dash which more resembled the berlina dash (with the stripes). Not sure what date they changed over - however i had a S1 Calais built in Feb 86 with the squares background (not the dots).

All turbo blocks are the same. A series 2 block is just a turbo block. The series 2 N/A's had series 2 blocks because it was cheaper to have just one engine block instead of 2. I think thats what u were asking. You might have been refering to the dash squares/blocks.
