Hood latch

Was going to paint this latch, or order a new one as i need a spring for it…but looking at ebay or classic, the catch is different, mine fits in between 2 tabs on hood, , its different that any pic i can find, help if you know whoch spring. Would need, or even the whole latch,,for my 51 chevy…

After thinking, it looks possible that someone in history squeezed this latch together to fit in between my two tabs, and i might could use the wider one on the outside of my tabs,anyone have a latch better than mine? I still cant figure why mine is different
