Default front lower bushing--not round?

Ordered two Lemforder 29784-01 to replace the lower control arm inner bushings. Are they supposed to be oval? I'm assuming yes, since both have the same dimensions out of the box, I doubt it's shipping damage or a fluke. It is approx 1.25mm longer in one direction than the other. Want to confirm there's nothing strange in pressing these in/out before I take the car apart.

Thanks,
-Michael

I got the same question too, I purchased two lower control arm bushing and they are oval. I guess this is the correct size as we both have the same shaped bushing.

Yes and it will be round once you press in the round arm. Giving the required interferance press fit
