1978 turn signal lens

I have a 1978 Cheyenne. I'm replacing the clear turn signal lens with a new to me one. I have a large gap at the top that I didn't have with the original ones. They seem to be the same dimension as the one I take off the truck. Are there different lenses?

I took a picture of the new to me len on the truck.

Please advise.

There's a "left" and a "right" lens. If you look closely they're marked L and R, At least the OEM lenses are. Not sure about the reproductions.

Mine don't fit flush either but I never really investigated it.
