This is correct, I just did a retrofit of the 'new' style to the urq a
couple months ago.  The 'new' and still available Clutch Masters come with a
shorter rod, and they don't come with studs.  To retrofit that part to the
urq, you need to remove the linkage from the urq Master, and swap it with
the linkage from the 'new' style Master.  1 Circlip, but remember that also
holds all the Master Cylinder guts as well.

2 M8 x 45 bolts with nylon lock nuts on install, yer done.

The other option, is to take the urq master apart, hone the inside of the
master, and install the guts from the new Master with the urq linkage
attached.  BTDT2.

Cheers and HTH

ISTR from long ago others indicating that the linkage on the replacement
parts was too short.  Since your car apparently did not have the clutch M/C
installed it is difficult to say.  The newer quattros didn't have the M/C
mounted to the firewall, so the linkage is shorter.  
 
If you believe that you received the incorrect replacement part it and yet
have the old M/C you should be able to transfer the linkage from the old M/C
to the new one.  If you take off the boot the linkage goes in to on the M/C
you will see that there is a clip that holds it in the M/C's bore ... remove
the clip from the two parts and swap the linkage from one to the other and
reinstall the clip.  BTDT ... although I think it was on a 4kQ.
