Have you spoken to Sam perchance? he rang me on this very subject yesterday.
If you're watching Sam, if you read above the table on page 25, it does say that 6mm is the free gap when the rings are on the bench.. a bit earlier in the text (p24) it quotes 0.15-0.35mm in the bores.
But it is a little confusing.
Lower first over S3

hi simon,
its the bottom one, original type with the ends shaped to fit under the locating pin, as opposed to up to it !
cheers chris.
