Default help with fuel pump lock rings

so im in the middle of changing fuel pumps in my car and my lock ring needed replaced. i picked one up from a local shop, then had to take it back this afternoon cause i didnt fit it had 3 grooves and mine tank has 4. when i took it back the shop said they had seen this before and that it was an american tank. but looking for the part ive found both all from american sites.

this is the one i need: but this site wont ship to canada

this is the only one i can seem to find:
http://www.latemodelrestoration.com/...1&comp=LRS

does anyone know where else i can find the 4 style?

also does any know why theres 2 different styles??
