Are short nose ones earlier than the long nose ones or the other way around?

The one on the right is correct for all. The left is a close replacement. Better then not, but not quite right. Cant speak to model A usage.

Model A starter shafts are larger diameter than a T. Seems to me T is 1/2”, and A is 5/8”...

Early Model A's with the Abell starter drive had 1/2" shaft. From Oct. 1928 on, the 5/8" Bendix to end of production.

The Bendix drive head for the one on the left is a bit longer than T and uses a different lock bolt depth too, still think one on left is early Model A.
