So, do ALL 2018 or newer Leaf's have the Gen3 inverter?
Or is there something I need to check to be sure I get that one?

There are only two Leaf motors.
The EM61 was used up to about 2013, had stronger magnets (more torque,
less rpm) and was connected to the inverter by a short cable.
The EM57 has been in all Leafs since and introduced the 'stack'
arrangement with Inverter, Charger/DC-DC and Power distribution box
all bolted directly on top. It's a bit smaller and about 5Kg lighter.
It appears that Nissan were able to use cheaper magnets, but maintain
the same, or better efficiency.
Even an original Gen1 Leaf inverter has a power stage that's been
shown to be capable of about 140KW. The 80KW limit was based on how
hard they wanted to push the battery.
The current Gen3 inverter uses the same FS800R07A2E3 IGBT module as
the BMW I3 and is rated at 800A per phase. It's firmware limited to
110, or 160KW (not bhp) depending on the battery.

I'm looking at using a Nissan Leaf motor for my truck
The newest version is rated at 160hp, and appears to have started being
used in 2018.
Were ALL Nissan Leafs after that using this larger version of the motor?
How do I tell which version a motor is?
