cv carb part number

i bought today a 87 sporty 883. the guy couldn't get it running and i bought it right. thing was just dumping fuel and he'd been monkeying with the carb quite a bit. so i rip it off and it's a cv varible venturi carb with a accelerator pump, so i now know it's not original. the enricher cable is broken so head down to the harley store carb in hand. long story short i got the wrong parts. i'm hoping someone can help me out here.
p/n on carb is 27498-96a
a quick google shows it as xl 1200c am i to understand it's from a california emisions xl 1200 1996??

if any of you are part number savvy i'd love to know what i should have here for the enricher. here's what they sold me:
27582-88 cable sealing cap
27580-88 cable guide xlh 883
27581-88 starter cap
29229-88d cable enricher

i'm thinking he gave me a bunch of parts for an 88 883. any words of wisdom appreciated.

1996 California only model had carburetor PN# 27498-96

First year for the 27498-96A was 2002, for the California only Sportster

The enrichener cable for a 02 1200 with 27498-96A carburetor is PN# 29238-92B
29229-88d would be the correct cable for an 88 Sportster


Not sure what the differences between the 2 cables are, probably differences on the mounting hardware on the knob end.
