Easiest I expect would be the W50 as most if not all would have been behind R series motors to start with and so should bolt straight up to the engine. The only other thing you may need to change is the g/box cross member. This may just be either a swap between using and auto or manual cross member or just turning it around 180 degrees to line up the holes. Should be a easy fit I'd think as I imagine the RT104 would of had a W40 manual in it which is basically the same g/box but without the extra bulge for the fifth gear in the rear extension housing.
Other thing to check is the number of splines on your current g/box output / tailshaft.
If you are sourcing from a celica W50 were in all 2lt celicas up to and including RA40s

Dead on GT1978.

I put a W50 in my RT104 (replacing the W40) years ago... was a simple bolt up job.
The shifter did come out at different location though, i did need to extend the hole in the tunnel for it.

You can get the right shifter location just can't remember what car it came from. Performed the operation about 15yrs ago.
