Drawing Hall Probe?

The markscheme requires me to draw a labelled diagram showing Hall probe correctly positioned (along p). Should I be making an abstract drawing of hall probe in which I basically draw hall probe as a square. Or should I be making drawing of the actual instrument? Sorry if this sounds like a stupid question but I am self studying physics so I have no way to make sure that I'm confirming to the exam regulations. This question is for CIE exam board by the way.

I think the clearest thing (in general*) would be an isometric drawing of the electromagnet core and probe

isometric drawing of a Hall probe would look like
(basically a cuboid representing the semi-conductor and correctly aligned with the magnetic field in your diagram)

*you've chopped off what you're supposed to be paying particular attention to... obv you're making it easier for yourself if your diagram clearly shows what you're writing about in the written description.
