Can you show another photo of the opposite side of both mounts? Two mounts in the same photo would be best.

Seems strange. Second photos look normal, first photos show a clear difference in height. Hopefully someone who knows these parts intimately will chime in.

They show that they were manufactured 1 year apart so there may have been a revision in that time.
Without seeing the date when they are upside down, judging by where they sit in you chair it looks like the latter date has the deeper rubber bellows.
I would fit the latter date on the left side as this is the one that usually lets go first due to how the engine rocks under acceleration.

Thanks. I hadn't noticed the date of manufacturer. Noted could be a revision difference or maybe the right side mount (earlier date) is defective/ was damaged during transit . I'm going to see if I can get that one replaced by the seller or I'll have to send them both back and reorder elsewhere...
