They are all correct. The only difference I noticed is the 'drawing' of the jack
and that could be caused by url 1 looking at the jack from the outside of the
computer while url 2 & 3 are looking at the jack from the inside of the computer.
The Tandy manual "Introducing Your Color Computer" is identical to url 1 and
states "Looking at the outside of the RGB OUT jack on the bottom of the computer:"
In any case with a missing pin for 6, it should be trivial to verify the
orientation of the pins.
