The original grommet is a round one that fits in to the whole like described above. The replacement cable you can buy these days has the type grommet you described on it so that it can go with multiple applications.
I just changed my shifter cable a few weeks ago and tossed the grommet that came on the new cable in the garbage. My old grommet was still in real good shape, so I re-used it. If yours is missing or in bad shape, go with the speedo grommet mentioned above.
