The difference is about .035" between those part numbers. The first number, MPR103B is approx. 8.685" long and the other, MPR308, is approx. 8.650".
The MPR103B is a G.M. pushrod while the MPR308 is listed for a Ford application.
Both have oil holes for the rockers so the application won't really matter as long as the lengths work!
The numbers you have are 5/16" pushrods, the G.M.'s factory truck "tall-deck's" were 3/8". The early 427" G.M. "tall-deck" intakes average 8.680", but as I stated, they are the 3/8" diameters. They are interchangeable, but you must use the corresponding guide plates.
