Default Rear Light Cluster - Orange Light bulb

I had the need to remove my drivers side rear light cluster, and when removed, noticed that the Orange Light bulb was looking a bit worse for wear. By that, I mean the bulb appeared to have had an orange coating on the outside of the bulb glass which had cracked and flaked off in places, so decided to replace it. I bought the bulbs at the Local Auto Spares shop, but had difficulty inserting the bulb. On investigation I found that the pins on the stem, for lack of better words, were offset on the diameter, which is the reason they would not fit. I have never seen this before. I HAVE seen in the past, these pins offset in the length of the stem, which is what I always check for BUT never this way ?????
Have these GOT to be a Dealer Part ????? STRANGE TO ME
