1LE brake installation

Installing 1LE brake kit. Passenger side went together well. The driver side bolts together with the bleed screw at the bottom of the caliper. The bleed screw goes into a shallow beveled hole, and the supply line bolts into a deeper hole so it appears the two are not interchangeable. Am I missing something or do I have two passenger side calipers? Any Thoughts?

The other side should be a mirror image. If you dont' have that, then my guess is that you have 2 driver's side. You should be able to tell by taking the bleeder screw out and looking into the hole.

1LE brakes

On closer inspection, it appears I have two identical calipers. The boxes they came in have different part numbers so a mix-up occurred somewhere along the line.
