Kickstart return spring

I need a new return spring for my very late (1965) eibar series 2.

Presumably I need one for a series 2, but as it's so late maybe I need series 3?

Without knowing the difference between them I've no idea how to decide.

Anyone know?

Series 3 / GP has a slight kink at the end of the Spring.

The series 1 / 2 is more or less straight.

Thanks, but I can get one quite easily. I guess in that case it's determined by which side case I have, which is actually s3.

I'll get an s3 spring and if it's no good I can use it in a series 3 motor I have under the bench which coincidentally also needs a spring.

Thanks gents.
