Question Are there two different basket designs for the 300?

I have a 2011 300 and I'm having issues getting the correct basket.
On the following image you can see bottom right stock basket.
Bottom left aftermarket basket from a 2002 300
And top is the new current Barnett basket.



NOTE:
Part # for Barnett is correct
Hole for pinion gear is about 6mm too big
Tab for rubber damper is also the wrong shape and larger than the stock tab.
Spoke with Barnett today and they said that my basket is different than their stock GasGas basket?
They said to go ahead and send the basket back.


Are there two basket designs?
If so, are there two pinions designs, since the diameter of the hole on the Barnett (on the right) is clearly larger?

In this last picture you can see the gap between the pinon gear and the basket.
