Reman axles

I bought 2 reman axles from carquest. Odd thing.. even though both part numbers match the axles do not look the same. One is the spitting image of the originals, the other one looks very different.

They are the same length extended and compacted. The splines are the same and it looks like both would work. However, personally I think I am going to insist that they replace the axle with the same type.

Anyone have any thoughts about it? Does it matter if they don't look the same but are equal in length and size?
