Oh, I see. In that photo, it looks like I used a 1x1 brick sticking straight
out.

Actually, it's a 1x2 inverted slope, with the sloping side facing the camera.
That matches what I think I see in the photos on this page:

But are you saying it's actually a purely parallel rectangle, like a 1x2 plate
or two? Can you cite a clearer picture of that by any chance?

I put up an additional picture of my model, that shows this and other details
more clearly:

I think you're right. After looking at the NASA pic again, and yours, I think it is more like what you have done. The first pic you posted, though, looks like a rectangular brick sticking straight out from the SM. My bad! James (20 years ago, 15-Apr-05, to lugnet.space)
