Speedometer cable to transmission connection

My stock 68 340 4 speed has that cable and it attaches to a short cable to the back of the speedo. (no cruise) two piece setup. TheNAPA one I purchase is a one piece version.
Hmm... I've had a couple of '68s and they were single cables- so who knows. A lot of weird stuff happened on assembly lines! I'll never say I've seen everything!
