Default Timing Gear Set Question URGENT

I need to replace my timing set and I can't remember what the stocker looked like. Particularly, what the sprocket that went on the crank looked like. Can someone tell me what the sprocket on the crank looked like?

As you can see, in this one the sprocket is ATTACHED to the peice that the oil pump slips on to:

or does the sprocket slip onto the "snout" that the oil pump attaches to like this one:

It is just a spacer then the sprocket. The spacer is pressed on then the sprocket goes on. The second pic just doesn't show the spacer.

Yes the first link is the crank gear ,,,,,,,,,,Rockauto parts has the LS2 standard replacement timing set that is an upgrade from the LS1 set until like 05 then it's the same as the LS1 and LS2 for $30 or there-about .
