skunk 2 magnetic drain plugs question

is the short one for the oil pan?
someone said short for oil pan and long for tranny, but when i ordered a set of mfactory, they said long for oil pan and short for tranny.

I would trust mfactory over "someone".

The tranny already has a huge magnet at the bottom of it. What is a dinky little magnet going to do?

short for tranny (has closer reciprocating parts to the drain hole)
long for the oil pan (has more than enough room before any moving parts would even come close.)
