Unfortunately, the manual doesn't specify by manufacturer name. It just says "8-Way Joystick Assembly." But it does provide a detailed diagram of it:

See page 100 of the PDF (page 95 in the manual).

Oddly, earlier in the manual it shows a picture of a microswitch joystick, but I remember playing an original Congo Bongo upright back in the day and it definitely had a red ball top, leaf switched stick, and Funspot's does as well.
 
The one I had was Red-Ball Wico leaf...
