How can I tell if I have 1 or 2 pc rear main seal?

I have a leaking rear main seal in my 84 RS (305 cid) and I would like to know which type of seal I have, 1 pc or 2 pc. My manual has 2 different swap out instructions depending on the type; ie remove tranny or remove oil pan. Can anyone help me out?

If it's the original engine, an 84 has a 2 piece RMS.
