As a matter of fact there is some pictures of the two drive. In the link treads above.

The direct Drive is on the left and the smaller Gear Reduction is on the right.
What does the bracket look like? Straight? Curved?

More that likely they changed the starter and didn't get a new bracket.
The only way to know for sure if the starter needs any shims is to pull the flywheel cover and check the spacing between the bendix and the flywheel. This is also covered in the above links and the Tech Manuals.
