My picture is useless lol
It looks to me as the only springs you have left are the ones that go with the cup and pin to hold the shoes to the back plates.

I've put some photo's in my archive of the drums fitted to the sierra. They helped me put them back together.
I've no idea how to insert pics, sorry.
Hope they help.

Be prepared to lose a couple of knuckles putting them back together. And try not to stab yourself with the screwdriver you use to prise the springs
in. I really hate putting drum brakes together
Ianks pics should have everything you need.

pictures are "l0c0st"'s, but yes.
The haynes sierra manual (turquoise version) has an exploded diagram on page 225

Helps if you use the correct tool ! A pair of brake spring pliers makes fitting brake springs a piece of cake
