Daytona factory strap

I'm looking to buy a factory Daytona strap (Small / brown).

I found two on eBay but one strap says alligator (brown) on the back and the other says crocodile (black) on the back? I could've sworn I read a thread here that said Rolex only used gator.

Does Rolex use both skins for their Daytona straps? If so what would make them use gator vs croc? Is it based on color; black croc and brown gator?
