I've always believed the Drivers side Hockey stick tube was the first design used on the earlier assemblies,and the middle connection tube was the second design used on later assemblies.When exactly that change occurred,I don't know,but I believe your early camaro should have the first design Hockey stick tube before you asked this question,and Jerrys book,Williams photo and Steves photo support this.

Steve,I see the drivers side second design on your 2D camaro.

Correct the hockey stick is the first design, and what you are referring to as second design was in fact used in 1968 and again reintroduced in Feb of 69. I previously referred to as earlier because it was used in 1968 but in 69 it was reintroduced and referred to as 2nd design in the book you reference.
