Default Quick question bout S&S pushrods

Hello,
Im reinstallin some &S adjustable pushrods into my '01 Fatboy. It has geared cams with a 5700 grind. I had a oil line blockage that had to be cleared nd upon reassembly the gremlins got me and I mixed up my 2 front pushrods identitties. One is about 1/4 inch longer than the other. (Not quickies). Please, which one is exhaust and which is compression. Being asjustaable, I would thik that would be insignificat.
Thank you in advance,
Ron

Exhausts are longer.

Compression follows intake stroke.
