Default Aluminium fuel filler cap

I was looking at the aluminium fuel filler cap from Porsche the other day. I think this was made for the 996, but is still available for the 997. Would this one fit my 964 ?

My 21-year-old original cap is showing some corrosion on the fuel side. Will the aluminum part fit?

I don't want to face this again in 21 years!
