I don't remember seeing anything but yoke there. But I wasn't especially looking.
Try Ocean Encounters - either at their main location east of town by the Sea Aquarium. or Ocean Encounters West, it's up by Lodge Kura Hulanda in West Punt. About the same driving distance but most of the better sites on the west end are between Habitat and OEWest.
Curacao Technical PADI Courses - Ocean Encounters Curacao
Or Caribbean Sea Sports at the Marriott in Piscadera Bay - in west Willemsted. http://www.caribseasports.com/06_about_us.html

Superior Producer - Airplane Wreck - Tugboat there's also a new plane wreck out by Playa Kalki - not the one off Sunset Waters, it's just a dis-assembled Cessna strewn about. The best part of Tugboat was the wall around the point to the left of the wreck.
OP
Packed and going to airport. Will be sleeping in Curacao tonight and diving in morning
Also, the Yoke valve contains an O-Ring within the tank side of the valve. The O Ring on a DIN tank is on the regulator side. That means that if you get a leaky tank on a boat, then its your fault since its your O Ring. The DIN connection is a lot stronger, and less prone to leaking. The ORing is a lot less likely to extrude. It is also very common in Europe.
