Default Convertor Heat Shields different?

I have a '99 WS6 6-speed convertible. I can't find much on the subject of driver's side exhaust heat sheilds.
My car has a driver's side heat shield over the clutch hose on the sloped part of the floorpan under the driver's feet. Behind that as you go rearward, there is a blank spot that seems to need a shield because the floor is brown from exhaust heat. Then there is another shield further back for brake/fuel lines. I thought I saw some cars that have a shield that covers the whole area, even the area where mine is browned (cooked?).
Does anyone know of differences in years or convertibles?
I can't seem to find any of the part numbers on this site and I can't find the parts on GMPartsDirect. I will check with my dealer to see if he can help.

Default added photo

Here is a photo of my heat shields and burnt area from the stock exhaust. I just now added the headers and will soon be finishing the exhaust.

Is there another heat shield that should cover this brown floor area?
