Default 5.3 w/ F-body pan... which oil pump o-ring?

I am putting an F-body pan on my 5.3 with a stock truck oil pump. Do I match the oil pump o-ring to the F-Body pickup tube, or to the truck oil pump. I purchased an o-ring for an F-body not even thinking that I might have to match it to the truck pump vs. the Camaro pickup tube.

It goes with the pickup tube, pumps should be basically the same.

The blue Oring from GM is correct. If you purchased one for an Fbody then you will have the correct piece.
