steering nossle question

[seadoobie]

So i have another question here...I was in the process of putting the steering nossles back on the boat and i noticed that they are a lil different from each other on the inside...(see photos). I'm not sure if its supposed to be like this, or if one of them has been replaced at some point in time. What i want to know is would this cause a problem in the steering or is it nothing to worry about.

Mine are slightly different too. That is normal. I have heard it somehow offsets the toque of the engines to keep the boat from pulling to one side. When you look up the parts, they are different numbers and one actually says -steer- next to it. Off the top of my head, i think the smaller opening is on the right. I am at work, i can look in the morning when i get home.
