Only to complete the info despite the difference is
evident looking the photographs quoted  in
Collectcamera and eBay previously: The Bay II from
3.5C or E model and Bay III lens hoods have two rings
really, the lens hood outer ring protrudes from the
inner ring and this lens hood outer ring has the
special cut and the regular female slots to fit it in
the taking lens accesories male holders. In the other
hand the Bay I 6x6 and 2.8A size II lens hoods don't
have a second ring protruding from an inner ring, the
female slots or cuts are in the same ring.

All the best
