It isn't?

Imola186/TS1225 etc use the short black/round stub.

Cast Iron, Mugello, Rapido, Avanti etc use the other stub.

Simon,
Imola/TS1/Monza use a round exhaust port/flange.
Mugello/standard/rapido/RT all use a oval exhaust port/flange.
Question is why do the makers of the exhaust make the 2 different flanges in 2 different lengths?
What you need is an oval flange that is as short as the round flange, if that makes sense.

I'm thinking that getting the manifold cut'n'shut will be the easiest fix.

I've not got one to hand but wondering if you can trim a couple of mm off the stub and off the exhaust pipe to see if it's moving in the right direction?
