I have a 2001 build TS Astra and I'm wanting to buy a Dayco timing belt kit for this car on ebay.

I'm abit confused as there seems to be 2 kits for the TS Astra but I dont know which one fits my vehicle:

Dayco Kit KTBA093 - http://cgi.ebay.com.au/TIMING-BELT-KIT-DAYCO-HOLDEN-ASTRA-BARINA-COMBO-VAN_W0QQitemZ180144382019QQihZ008QQcategoryZ102359 QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

or

Dayco Kit KTBA006 - http://cgi.ebay.com.au/TIMING-BELT-KIT-HOLDEN-ASTRA-BARINA-RRP-368-00-006_W0QQitemZ180145063493QQihZ008QQcategoryZ102359 QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

Seeing my car is a 2001, I would assume the 093 kit is the correct one but I have been told otherwise. The key to this seems to be whether the engine number is before or after 20041690. I have tried looking at my engine number and no such series of numbers exist - my one is 20-letter-5 other numbers.

Any help is appreciated.
