Mark, you are correct, that's the wrong lens. As Mike said, the black is 2.0", the silver is 2.5". I just measured the focus tool for the silver one and it's about 12mm longer (further away) than the black one. Put the silver one in, focus it, then look at your z value in Job Control (there's an X,Y,Z value that's real time) and just lower the table by 12mm.
That will get you running until you can get things sorted out.
