Default Help Identity this Distributor - Pics Included

Could someone tell me what Year (96-00) and trim level (CX, DX, EX Si) Civic has a distributor with this harness plug seen in the first picture?

I keep running into distributors with the harness plug located in the second picture and this is NOT what I am looking for.

Thanks,
Jason

Sorry for the blurry photos. iPhone is garbage at taking pics.

I found this, which seems to answer part of my question:

But, which is which?

The top picture is of an OBD2A civic ('96 - '98) the bottom picture is of an OBD2B distributor ('99 - '00 civic) now for the exceptions. All '96 - '00 Civic HX coupes are OBD2A and use the single large plug. '99 - '00 Civic Si's also all use the large plug. The easiest way to remember it is that '99 - '00 D16Y7s and D16Y8s use the small plug.

Thank you. I actually figured this out with the link I pasted and went to Autozone's website for comparison. Autozone's website shows a picture of the actual part and the differences in plugs, which amazes me since I figured most sites would just show a generic photo.
