The right one should have handle aligned exactly with metal lungs at the bottom of the cap. Like on your old cap.
Modification is very easy. Just open the handle in two parts with a plastic wedge, like an old credit card or trim removal tool.

But don't I then have to cut slots in it?

Yes, there are 4 slots to cut.
Opening is the most difficult part. Don't use metal tool to pry off the cap. Only use plastic, so there will be no scratches. After opening: With a pencil mark the bottom of the cap with 4 spots where the slots should be. Then transfer those 4 marks to the top of the cap. Then cut slots in the top of the cap with a thin file or with a Dremel tool.
