This is a guess but I think the X designation means it was produced before the M211 series was officially standardized.

Here's what I was told by the nice guy at Alfa heaven. He said the xm211 had a high nickel frame and more reinforced frame due to cracking of motor mount area in early model trucks. After this mod was proven effective they dropped the "x" and it became m211. Nice people there at Alfa heaven.
