Default Correct Tie Rods

I am trying to determine the factory correct appearance tie rod for 1969 Camaro and am seeing some conflicting information from Ricks compared to Heartbeat City. Ricks shows an inner tie rod as being "show correct" with their part number 33-180084-1 and having the grease fitting at the very end of the rod on the rough cast surface. Heartbeat City shows their part number FEP-1086 with the fitting on the center of the flat steel surface as you typically see, and states that this is "exact as original" and "correct in appearance". Who is correct? I have some NOS inner rods with part number 3978049 group 6.233. These have the fitting on the cast surface. Would these be factory original? Also would the outer rods match the inners in terms of grease fitting location?
Thanks.
Bob
