Help assembling back the linkage

Gentlemen,
with all this social distancing I had an itch...
I took apart the linkage to get it zinc plated in my - not so secret lab - basement. Now I have to put it back and I realized that 2 brackets are similar but not identical, see pictures. They is about 1/4" difference between them
Question: Which one goes next to the injection pump, the shorter or the longer one?
BTW. For those who have a similar itch visit :

Thanks,

I will check in the garage tomorrow if nobody answers earlier. But I would try if the longer one will fit in the bracket on the inlet manifold side. I think you can try it - it may be too long and will collide with the bracket...

Agree: by my crude measurements, note the OEL in the background
