I have a K1 that doesn’t take early K1 parts. I think they changed things mid-production to use the unicorn nozzles that they evidently designed for another printer. During that time, the hotend was changed twice as well. This means if I order a hotend kit, I have a very low chance of actually getting the part I need. I’m not sure how to shop, because everything just says K1.
Usually that means a v1, v2, etc. there are k1v1, k1v2, k1c, k1 max, k1 plus, k1se, etc. so you need to verify exactly which version you have and order the parts specific to your system.

Creality wouldn’t explain that to me, and I’ve never seen a listing with versions for the K1. Can you find one so I can see what you mean?

I just googled it. You should be able to tell based on the hot end and serial number
