Wow there really aren't any good pictures of these out there on the net. The gear ring / split nut aren't cut in half per say, they are actually snapped/fractured so that when they are put back together the most you should see is what looks like a hair-line crack. Some have small grooves cut into the ring to get them to snap in a specific spot but that is usually higher up inside the sleeve and you cant see them when the sleeve is in place.
The ring half in front is sitting upside down on the table, but you can see that the sleeve on the right is what holds those pieces together when assembled.
