Anyone know how to identify 1851 cylinder Pietta vs Uberti

[farmbif]

I bought a replacement cylinder for 1851 navy 36 cal pietta and it is about 1/32" too long. the barrel assembly won't seat all the way when I try to assemble gun. the stampings on the nipple end are a diamond shaped trade mark that looks like piettas and the numbers 270 and 32. Is there anyone who knows about these things

I am guessing that pietta made replacement cylinders for uberti guns and that must be what I have since it has the pietta diamond shaped trademark on the nipple end of cylinder,
