Without being at work and taking a physical picture I can't, but here is a screenshot from cummins parts direct. it's basically the same thing as for the 24v but only has 2 holes to remove the keepers (obviously) lol

Sorry I didn't have pics off hand.. but that "T" part in the picture is definitely the right one. The star piece is for a 4 valve motor. I'm not sure if they will work for the 12 valve or not.

Here's the one I use.
It's got a deeper cutout in the bridge to accommodate #60 over valve springs, and the pockets work with factory sized as well as the larger retainers + 10 degree chrome moly locks, this type of compressor does 2 springs at a time -

I replaced all twelve springs with 60#, along with seals, head gasket, studs, timing cover crank seal and killed the dowel pin. All for piece of mind and to stop a few leaks. took me about a week.
