3183 Plate, Modified 1 x 4 with Tow Ball Socket (Undetermined Type)

I have this in a set and I want to determine it, but I'm a little lost.
It has the 4 slots, but I can't tell from the limited pics the long and short
socket. Can someone help?

The four I have are the same length but as one has two slots and the others 4,

for the tiny “bit more.”)

Oh, if you have
