Its a single tank. Not sure what the Hi/Lo comfort vent is, sorry. It has a 4 position blower on the left (vertical) and heater lever along the top (horizontal) and a lower lever which says OFF, Heater, Defrost on the bottom.
Sorry I should get a picture. In looking around I think its part 18549

Your parts selection for a heater panel can include the newer trucks. I snagged this heater panel out of a newer truck, and slightly modified it (the four plastic mounting posts needed to be shaved down) and re-wired the fuel tank selector switch to follow the Front/Rear labeling.

Without dual fuel tanks, without Hi/Lo Comfort Vent System (Deluxe Heater Vent).
