Default New Driveshaft HELP NEEDED ASAP

So just got new J&R driveshaft though this morning now faced with a problem.

Inspecting new drive shaft it appears to be fatter and more chunky than the originally one.

I have snatched an image off here the drive shaft on the right of picture is exactly same as what I have on.

If you look at where the inner CV Boot is on it that goes into gearbox the silver metal is thin and narrow as J&R is shorter and wider and also with the cv boot one on has more lips on cv boot and J&R has 3 as where mine has 4.

I am assuming this is shorter than the original one I have on??

Have they sent me the wrong one? or are they just designed different

Advise needed asap as am going to be fitting over weekend and dont want to spend time taking apart only to find is wrong one.

This is for passenger side so nearside am assuming. is correct one or wrong one?

Won't be the same as OEM, difference in design. Wouldn't worry about the boots.

So long as its the same am not bothered just looked a lot different in size but looking more into it the main ones like a tin can the one on new one is solid.

Only way gonna truly find out is ripping old one off and fitting in the new one and seeing if everything measures up correctly no gaps or stuff.
