Default Type of Rear Mono leaf spring?

Hello everyone I'm finally getting better from having both of my hips replaced and am now getting close to where I can start to work on my corvette again and being able to get in the drive's seat again. My question is my rear mono leaf spring snapped after hitting a pot hole and was moving at the time and had the hip trouble and am just now after 3 yers getting back in the game. my question is I know there are a few different types of rear leaf springs and they have a 3 letter code on them I am trying to figure out which one I need to purchase after I get back to work and get my corvette back up and going again. Its an early 1993 corvette convertible with ever option on it as far as I know. Can someone lead me in the right direction to find out which one I need to get. thanks in advance for any help can't wait to drive her again its been so long!!!!

Default Mono Spring

I had researched a rear spring for my '93 Convertible. I believe the Code NYR is correct for your car. There are a couple of others that are also indicated but I think those are replacement not what was OEM for the car.
There is one for sale on the Parts for sale section.

I came across this list some years ago so it may be helpful with the GM part number to go with the spring code.

REAR SPRING DATA
Code= NYU, #/in= 326, Years= 1985-95, GM part# 14080196
Code= NYR, #/in= 228, Years= 1985-93, GM part# 22112253
Code= RCA, #/in= 228, Years= 1986-96, GM part# 14106787
Code= RHY, #/in= 188, Years= 1992-96, GM part# 17999322
Code= RHZ, #/in= 148, Years= 1994-96, GM part# 22112253

Not sure why the NYR and RHZ have the same part numbers but I would think the RHZ data may be wrong.
