Default Correct 993 Keys

Are the 3 keys shown in the attachment the correct factory keys for the 993? Is the biggest key on the left side of the attachment supposed to lock firm in the open position?

Mine came with two copies of the larger one (left), and I believe they do lock open (I'm at work, car at home).

EDIT: Nope, doesn't lock open.

I replaced one of the switchblade keys with the fob shown in the middle, but the keyhead on mine isn't "open". It's solid with Porsche crest.

The key on the largest plastic housing on the left side of the picture does not lock open. Removing the screw does not show a repair because the spring is encased in plastic.
