Default Capri Clutch Cable

I'm looking to get this ordered and fitted, can anyone comment on whether this is the right cable as there seems to be a few different capri cables and from what I gather they're all slightly different?

I had one just like this arrive yesterday, tried it in place and it was a real wrestle trying to get it in situ. The u-bend it has to take seems too tight. Any tips on getting it to sit straight (both at gearbox and pedal box ends!!!)
