Default Power Steering Pump Question - ZF Or Not

My power steering pump decided to start leaking, so I'm looking for a replacement. The problem is, I don't know which pump I have. Every parts store I look at references a ZF and a Non ZF pump. How can I tell?

They also reference snap ring retained backplane and bolt on backplane. Is this how it connects to the engine?

I have a picture of my pump hoping that helps.

I think when the part says ZF, its talking about a brand of steering pumps.. not a different model.
