If you can get a slightly longer one so that it curves upwards a little more it will allow the cylinder jacket to completely fill with oil - too short and you may have a permanent air 'pocket' meaning the cylinder will run hotter?

If they're the only two you've got, I'd swap them over as the one on the front cylinder is longer and that will fill OK anyway due to the height of the return hole.
It's only a dry component run They are original and have natural bends but what you cannot see is the alternator cover is about 25mm away from casings. I may have them wrong way round but can check back as one has a plastic ring around pipe

Just checked and is correct way around here is old pic on buying day
