Identifying Inner Tie Rod Type for 1991 Volvo 240 200

Hello,

After replacing my struts/shocks, I took my car for alignment.
Firestone told me that I need to replace outer tierod and inner tierod on driver side.

I am planning to order the part on my own. How can I identify whether inner tierod is CAM type or ZF type? I looked for data plate all over on my car but could not find it. I called the Volvo dealer but they could not tell me the information even though using my car VIN number.

My passenger side tie rods are fine, according to Firestone. Should I replace both sides? (I am leaning toward not replacing the (healthy) passenger side if I have to find non OEM/volvo tie rod parts.)

My car has about 100k miles. It is my back up car and I drive only for around town.

Thank you.
