Default Steering coupler specs

I have a '77 vette with power steering,tilt and telescope.Going to be ordering a new coupling through CPP(got a gift card from a raffle) and am I correct in saying the spline count is 30 with a 3/4 dia.
And does the coupling have a flat spot on it.

I did some more searching , It seems there's a 1" 48 spline version and a 3/4" 30 spline version. I dont know how accurate that is or what the reasoning is, it came from the borgeson site. measuring yours would still be the best.
