Default Front LCA bushings, same for single piece and 2 piece arm?

96 civic lxi Saudi Arabia

Are the bushings for the front LCA same for both the single piece control arms and those with two piece design control arms? (at least on US models)
I asked because the Hardrace bushing set on sale on Ebay says:

"96-00 Civic CX DX LX EX
IT WILL NOT WORK ON 99-00 Si models, or Japan Spec EK with one piece front lower arms."

I have the one piece front LCA but not sure if its same as Japan spec.

I also asked energy suspension about the fitment of their bushings but they are also not sure for the one piece LCA in the middle east models.

Tnx.
Would you or anybody know which one has the bigger diameter bushing?
If the 2 piece design has a bigger bushing, I may be able to use a polyurethane bushing after trimming it to fit.

the one piece bushing has a larger width. the stamped steel control arm would be equivalent to a 99-00 si.
