Redesigned timing chain guides or wrong part?

So I'm doing the timing systems on my 07 revup coupe. Ordered them off z1 motorsport and this is what I was sent. I got the oem ones and it was listed that these fit. However the guides are different, and I have really checked the chains. The holes line up however I'm not sure if they'll actually work. Someone told these are for an hr engine, but I'm unsure. Any advice is appreciated

That looks like the HR guides to me. I would contact Z1 and see about getting the right ones.
I've seen this issue a lot with parts being confused due to the 2007 sedan and coupe being so different.

Yes it seems to be the case. I have already emailed z1 and tbh it seems like they're trying to quickly brush me off saying it fits and that's that. However just looking at the guide I wouldn't be able to seat the half moon seal so. Hoping they give me no issues returning/exchanging parts. They've sent me a defective steel brake hose and refused to accept a return :/

That sucks. I've had 2 issues with them (shipping issue and had a part fail) and they were quick to rectify both, but that was a few years ago. Hopefully you get it worked out since its not a cheap kit to have to buy again.
