steering rack question

[bdriven]

Hello guys, so to day, I received a freshly built Steering Rack, which I bought from Garo in Florida, turns out it's completely different from my rack, so they're sending a replacement. From the pictures, can anybody tell which bimmer this rack would fit? (the one at the top is the "new" one, the other one is the one I removed)...amazingly, the old one was not completely broken, but it lasted a long 145K !

what were the symptoms of your failing rack?

Symptoms:
at low speeds, clunking noise on driver's side.
started leaking also
when you grabbed the rubber boot on the rack, and someone played around with the tire, you could feel a lot of play.
everything else was tight....
