D-Line question

If I play a 33 defence, I suppose it means 3 in D-line and 3 Linebackers. So am I playing with two DE and one DT or two DT and one DE? Is it DE or DT that playes the Nose Guard?

My understanding is that 3-3 would be 2 DE, 1 DT (Nose Tackle) and 3 LBs.

seems logic, yes, Nose is a tackle and the ends wouldn't be on the end otherwise.
