[Tex/LaTex] LNCS bibliography format

bibliographiesbibtexlncs

I am required to follow LNCS format, so I follow their instructions:

\documentclass[runningheads]{llncs}
...

\bibliographystyle{splncs03}
\bibliography{paper70}

The issue is that the bibliography appears in a new page and titled Bibliography, with the title centered. According to the LLNCS example file, it should be on the same page, titled References and with the title aligned to the left, like this:

The only difference I see between my file and the LLNCS example file is that in the LLNCS example file the bibliography is embedded into the file, with:

\begin{thebibliography}{5}
...
\end{thebibliography}

While I use a bibtex file. Is this the reason? In any case, how can I get the same output as in the image?

Not a real answer but too long for a comment. I got version 2.20 of llncs.cls from here ftp://ftp.springer.de/pub/tex/latex/llncs/latex2e/llncs.cls and tried

\documentclass[runningheads]{llncs}
\begin{document}
blblblb \cite{doody}

\bibliographystyle{splncs03}
\bibliography{biblatex-examples}
\end{document}

The output is as expected:

If you don't get this output, then probably your version of the class is different, if you get it with the small document but not in your real document then your document is doing something your didn't show.
