Question Oil Pressure Sensor Help!

so i had my local chevy dealership order me a new oil pressure sensor, got it in and took it to my garage before i noticed it had 2 prongs on the electrical connection, the one in my car only had 1. i checked the plug that the prongs go into, only one spot. so i returned it and got my $ back, asked him if he could call the "warehouse" or where ever he's gettin these parts from, guy was an *** blew me off told me there was nothing he could do, if it didn't fit my car, then oh well. emailed gmpartsdirect.com they had a 4 prong connection?!?!? does anyone know why there are so many different connections for a 99 Z?? and where the hell i can find one that will fit my car? any help at this point would be appreciated, i would like to get my intake back together soon! thanks a bunch everyone.

I just pulled both those part #'s from my stock & the 12559781 has 2 leads & the 12562267 has 1 lead which is what you're needing... Despite the parts guy being an ***, hit them up again & make sure they give you the 12562267.
