... and the Honda parts book shows angled caps of two different types for all four cylinders
These were original. But because most of us had to trim the wires sooner or later, we choose straight caps for 2+3 and the higher angled ones for 1+4 to compensate for the now somewhat shorter wires.

The original part number for 2&3 were 30700-300-620 and 30701-323-620 in the UK and were the same on the 750.
