Exclamation driveshaft questions... HELP!

I have a 95 camaro 3.4L 5speed. the drive shaft is bad in it(among other things, ill try and read before posting about.) ive found a drive shaft shop near me that will custom make an aluminum one for me, its cheaper than buying a new one and will have it made in a few hrs rather than a week or so but asked for the length on it. ive never replaced a drive shaft so have no clue how to and my jack was stolen so i cant even get under the car if i knew how. does anyone know the stock length of the drive shaft for it? also what else will i need to change or upgrade to go from the stock 2 piece to the 1 piece aluminum shaft?
Thanks for all your help and knowledge

You'll need jack stands to get under the car. The center hanger is tough to get off. Prop it up before pulling it out. Remove the bottom rear bolts then put it in neutral and spin the shaft to get the other two bolts out. That's all I can recall right now from when I did mine. Not too tough to swap out.

Make sure it has the universal joint included and lubed.

Buy a used one -- I am sure a custom aluminum one will be way over-priced! Check ebay and salvage-yards...
