Wrong carb connector?

This is a good sort of problem I suppose in that I’m trying to get the car ready to fire, but I believe I have the wrong piece here.
My car is a 1969 Elan with Strombergs and I believe it should have a connector as pictured (taken from this site).
What I actually have is this, which I can’t see making work as the studs in the wrong place.

I can't tell from the order of the pictures which you have but both are appropriate. The one with the tube is preferred. The other is from a federal setup, and the blocked off sections on top were for the crossover tubes.

Good morning, thanks for the response.
I was just missing the adapters, which of course I cleaned and painted so long ago that I forgot I had them. Oops.
Carbs are mounted now, just need to figure out the linkage as it was all taken apart before I got it. Have to do some searching here on that.
Hope your week is going well.
