Can the E3D extruder (non-prusa version) work with the MMU2?

Is there any way to get the MMU2 to work with the E3D (non prusa version) extruder?  I had the failure to extrude error happen too many times where filament was no longer extruding due to (from my own research) the heatbreak problem. 

I upgraded to the E3D hotend direct from them, but now the MMU will no longer load filament at all.

I believe prusa use a custom heatbreak to aid the MMU upgrade, you can buy the heatbreak from prusa for £16

E3D sell the Prusa specific heatbreak at

Prusa Specific HeatBreak (MK2, MK3) – E3D Online (e3d-online.com)

They charge £12.96 incl. VAT, As they are UK based they end up a lot cheaper than Prusa as first the price is lower and secondly the delivery charge is less. Would be nice if Titanium heatbreak came in a Prusa specific version.
