Default Timing Set Recomendations please for ls1 Single bolt cam

My engine is a LS1 with a single bolt camshaft. Cam sensor is at the back of the engine. Mild cam 210/220 duration @ 0.05 lift 0.510/0.510. Preferably one with a 9 keyway.
Looking at option most single bolt options are for the L98 and LS2/3 engines. Will these timing sets fit an ls1? Thanks in advance.

The LS2/3 timing sets will work if they are 1 bolt and youre using the cam sensor in the back of the block.

Not trying to be a smart aleck but why a 1 bolt cam in a LS1? Typically LS1's are 3 bolt. Might be easier to switch to a 3 bolt cam and adj cam sprocket.
I'm thinking the one bolt cams have the timing marks are on the cam sprocket so new timing cover.
Just my .02.
