Default Improved OEM OptiSpark ?

Does anyone know which year 1994 or 1995 Chevy put the improved Optispark in the C4. I believe this is the one that is less susceptable to moisture damage.

The change started in 1995. They added a vacuum vent to help remove any moisture that might have formed inside.
