Default 93 W250 Fuel Tank Straps

I'm looking for replacement straps for the fuel tank on my 93 W250 (5.9L Gas). For my vehicle, everyone seems to list parts that look like this:

Those straps are wrong and do not fit my truck. My truck uses straps that look more like this item:

Is it possible that perhaps some '93 model-year trucks used the 94+ straps? I've found other situations like this, where certain things on my 93 more closely resemble the 94, under the skin.

On my '84 W-150, I used metal straps to secure water heaters to the wall. Nobody is going to see them so make something to secure it. My tank fell out so I had to get something right away. It had nothing to do with my lead foot on a back road.
